An Estimated 20 Million Americans Have Some Form Of Thyroid Disease. The Scary Part Is Upwards Of 60% Are Unaware They Have Thyroid Dysfunction!
Current Research Is Showing Over 90% Of Thyroid Challenges have an AUTOIMMUNE component (such as Hashimoto's)! In other words, MOST people who have thyroid problems are NOT getting the proper treatment!
From The Desk Of Dr. Emily Burgoon D.O.
Dear Friend,
Over the past 10+ years I've had the privilege of helping countless patients with thyroid dysfunction! It's a BIG problem for a lot of people.
However, it's very poorly managed within the mainstream medical system.
Why?
MOST doctors ignore or don't test the immune system, toxicity or nutrient components! They simply put you on synthetic thyroid "chemical cover-ups" (FOR LIFE).
Meanwhile, you still may be suffering from low thyroid symptoms (hair loss, fatigue, weight loss resistance etc.)...because the ROOT CAUSE was never fixed!
You MUST test to determine what "path" to go down!
The thyroid path OR the autoimmune path! The treatments are vastly different!
Most medical doctors will check TSH, T3, T4 etc...all that is fine and well, however MOST don't check for thyroid antibodies, nutrient deficiencies or toxicity. WHY? Because their treatment plan won't change. It's a medication and let's see you in 6 months!
This is a very poor medical approach and leaves people feeling miserable!
OUR APPROACH IS UNIQUE!
We Don't Guess - We TEST
Let's say, for example, you ARE one of the 90% who has the autoimmune thyroid (Hashimoto's etc)...
We must address THAT. The IMMUNE SYSTEM!
Remember, we take a "global" look. We look at a variety of factors including foods, nutrients, neurotoxins, inflammation, cell health etc.
In order to truly get well and solve the problem, you need a doctor who is like a detective. Somebody who will take the time and dig for the root cause. NOT somebody who spends 5 minutes with you, gives you a "chemical" and says come back in 6 weeks. That's a failed approach.
If you're sick of the medical run around...then let's hop on a discovery call. Simply a chance to ask each other questions and determine if our thyroid protocol would make sense for you.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What Happens On The Discovery Call?
Very simple. Dr. Burgoon will ask you some questions, do a thorough health history, and determine if you're a case she can accept. If she thinks she can help she'll give you that option. If she doesn't think he can help, she'll work to find somebody who can.
Are Your Programs Safe?
ABSOLUTELY! Our protocols are extremely safe and there is nothing like it. There are very few doctors that will do objective functional testing and work towards finding the ROOT CAUSE of the health challenge. Most simply give a med / chemical cover up.
Does Insurance Pay For Functional Medicine?
Unfortunately, no insurance company pays for these functional medicine services. However, if you're MOTIVATED we'll work with you. Our protocols are very affordable and keep in mind that we've never turned anybody away because of finances.
Where Is Your Clinic Located?
These services are 100% virtual. The beautiful thing about functional medicine and our functional approach is that it can be done from ANYWHERE! After our initial discovery call (to determine if our protocol makes sense for you) we'll provide you with test kits so TOGETHER we can customize a safe, natural, & highly effective protocol based on YOUR individual needs.
Will I Have To Swallow A Lot Of Pills?
We will provide recommendations based on where you're nutrient deficient / depleted. Again, this is based on the testing that is performed. We'll give you supplement recommendations as well as give you food recommendations to eat more of that are abundant in the nutrients where you're depleted.
Do You Provide Support / Accountability?
YES! Even though our functional protocols are done virtually, we provide Footer24/7 email support. If you have a question / obstacle to work through we'll provide you the support & guidance you need.
