In our practice, we specialize in treating thyroid and hormonal imbalances using advanced, personalized approaches that focus on helping you reclaim your health and vitality. We believe that your symptoms—not just lab results—should guide your treatment plan, allowing us to address the root causes of your concerns and deliver real, lasting results.

Conditions We Treat:

• Thyroid Disorders: Hypothyroidism, Hyperthyroidism, Hashimoto’s Disease, and Graves’ Disease

• Hormonal Imbalances: Menopause symptoms, menstrual disorders, and other hormone-related concerns

• Fatigue: Persistent or unexplained fatigue often linked to thyroid or hormone issues

• Weight Loss: Tailored treatments to combat hormone-driven weight gain and promote sustainable fat loss. This includes the use of GLP medications (standard and microdosing) when applicable.

• Hormone Optimization: Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and other customized solutions for hormonal health

• Post-Thyroidectomy Care: Comprehensive support for those who have had their thyroid removed

Our goal is to help you find balance, restore energy, and experience true vitality, including achieving healthy weight management, so you can feel like the best version of yourself.

Conditions We Do Not Treat:

While we are deeply committed to providing exceptional care, there are some areas we do not specialize in, including:

• Primary care concerns

• Lupus

• Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

• Parathyroid disorders

• Psychiatric disorders unrelated to thyroid conditions (including depression and anxiety)

• SIBO or gut-only conditions

• Pain management

We are dedicated to focusing on what we do best, ensuring you receive the most effective and expert care in the areas we specialize in.

Yes, we do! Thyroid treatment is not one-size-fits-all—it must be tailored to you. If you’re on T4-only medications (like Synthroid or levothyroxine) and still struggling with hypothyroid symptoms such as weight gain, fatigue, hair loss, anxiety, or depression, it’s likely a sign that your treatment plan needs to be adjusted.

We utilize T3 treatments and naturally desiccated thyroid (NDT) options like Armour, WP Thyroid, and Nature-Throid when appropriate. These treatments can provide a more comprehensive solution by addressing both T4 and T3 hormone needs, based on your unique lab results and symptoms.

Our approach is to perform a full analysis of your thyroid function—not just TSH—and create a plan that ensures you get the right balance of thyroid hormones to feel your best.

For more information, check out episodes like “Fat and Tired on T4 Only” and “Why T4 Only Doesn’t Work” on The Thyroid Fixer Podcast. You deserve a thyroid treatment plan that actually works for YOU!

Yes, absolutely! The hormones we prescribe are bioidentical, meaning they are structurally identical to the hormones your body naturally produces. This allows them to work seamlessly with your body, providing a more natural and effective way to restore balance.

Bioidentical hormones are often used in treatments for conditions like thyroid imbalances, menopause, low testosterone, and other hormonal issues. By using bioidentical hormones, we aim to:

• Optimize your body’s hormone levels safely and effectively.
• Minimize side effects that are more common with synthetic hormones.
• Help you feel more like yourself by addressing symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, mood swings, and low libido.

Our approach is always personalized, so your hormone therapy is tailored specifically to your body’s needs for the best results.

Absolutely! These are exactly the types of conditions where functional medicine shines. My team and I specialize in digging deep to uncover the root causes of Hashimoto’s and Graves’. We don’t just manage symptoms—our Hashimoto’s supplement focuses on strategies to lower thyroid antibodies, reduce inflammation, and guide you toward remission whenever possible.

Our approach addresses the underlying factors that contribute to these autoimmune conditions, including:

• Inflammation: Calming the immune system to reduce tissue damage.
• Nutrient Deficiencies: Restoring critical nutrients like selenium, zinc, and vitamin D.
• Gut Health: Healing the gut to address the connection between intestinal permeability and autoimmunity.
• Hormonal Imbalances: Optimizing thyroid, adrenal, and sex hormone function to support overall health.

Our goal is to get you feeling vibrant, balanced, and like yourself again—because you deserve nothing less!

Yes, we do! While the term “adrenal fatigue” isn’t officially recognized in conventional medicine, the symptoms are very real, and they often point to chronic stress impacting your adrenal glands and overall hormonal balance.

In our practice, we dig deeper to understand what’s causing your low energy, brain fog, poor stress tolerance, and other symptoms. We address the root issues—whether it’s dysregulated cortisol levels, underlying thyroid imbalances, or nutrient deficiencies—and create a plan to restore balance.

Absolutely! Hormonal health is one of the core areas we focus on. Whether you’re dealing with imbalances related to menopause, perimenopause, low testosterone, or other hormone-related issues, we’re here to help.

We specialize in personalized hormone optimization, which often includes bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). This approach uses hormones that closely match what your body naturally produces, making it safer and more effective. Our goal is to restore balance, alleviate symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, mood swings, and low libido, and help you feel like yourself again.

Hormones play a critical role in your overall health, and we take a comprehensive, individualized approach to ensure your body has exactly what it needs to thrive.

Through targeted treatments, lifestyle changes, and adrenal support like adaptogens and glandulars, we help you recharge your energy and build resilience so you can handle life’s challenges with strength and clarity.

Yes, we treat both men and women! Hormonal and thyroid imbalances don’t discriminate, and neither do we. Whether you’re struggling with low energy, weight gain, mood changes, or other symptoms tied to your thyroid or hormones, our thyroid resources and supplements are here to help.

For women, we specialize in:

• Thyroid imbalances like Hashimoto’s and hypothyroidism

• Hormone optimization for menopause, perimenopause, and other hormonal concerns

• Addressing weight gain, fatigue, and other symptoms caused by hormonal shifts

For men, we focus on:

• Low testosterone and hormone optimization

• Thyroid disorders that impact energy, metabolism, and performance

• Supporting weight management and overall vitality

Our approach is always tailored to your specific needs, so you’ll get a treatment plan that works for you—regardless of your gender. Everyone deserves to feel amazing, and that’s what we’re here to help you achieve!

Yes, absolutely! Hormonal imbalances and thyroid dysfunction are some of the most common, yet often overlooked, causes of fertility challenges. In our practice, we specialize in optimizing hormones and thyroid health to support conception and a healthy pregnancy.

Here’s how we can help:

• Thyroid Optimization: Ensuring your thyroid function is in the optimal range, as both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can affect fertility.

• Hormone Balance: Addressing imbalances in estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and other key hormones to create the ideal environment for conception.

• Stress and Adrenal Support: Chronic stress can disrupt hormone balance and ovulation. We help support your adrenal glands to minimize its impact.

• Personalized Care: We tailor your treatment plan to your unique needs, focusing on what your body needs to prepare for conception.

Whether you’re just beginning your journey or have struggled with infertility, we’re here to dig deep, address the root causes, and give you the best possible chance to conceive and carry a healthy pregnancy.

Yes, we do! We understand that convenience and accessibility are key when it comes to managing your health. That’s why we offer telemedicine appointments, allowing you to connect with us from the comfort of your home, no matter where you live.

Through secure video or phone consultations, we can review your symptoms, discuss lab results, create personalized treatment plans, and guide you every step of the way. Our goal is to make top-notch care available to you without the hassle of travel or time constraints.

Whether you’re looking for thyroid, hormone, or overall wellness support, we’re here to help!

We are proud to offer prescription services, including thyroid medications and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), in all 50 states across the U.S. and in most of Canada. This ensures that wherever you are, you can access the treatments you need without barriers.

Our telemedicine platform allows us to provide personalized, expert care, while also handling the prescription of essential medications to support your thyroid, hormones, and overall health. No matter your location, we’re here to make your wellness journey as seamless as possible.

Absolutely! We accept HSA (Health Savings Account) and FSA (Flexible Spending Account) cards as payment, making it easier for you to access the care you need.

In addition, we also accept debit and credit cards, cash, and checks, so you have plenty of flexible payment options to choose from. Your health is an investment, and we’re here to make it as convenient as possible for you!

We are a cash-based practice and do not accept insurance. This allows us to focus on providing the level of care you truly deserve. In the traditional insurance model, appointments are often limited to just 7 minutes—far too short to dive into the complexities of your health.

When you come to us, we start with a 90-minute visit to thoroughly understand your health history, symptoms, and concerns. We take the time to truly dig into your story, ensuring that you feel heard—because you are!

Our approach prioritizes time, education, and personalized care, which is why we choose to operate outside the constraints of insurance. However, we are happy to provide a Superbill upon request, so you can submit it to your insurance for possible out-of-network reimbursement.

Yes, in most cases! We do our absolute best to order labs that are likely to be covered by your insurance to help minimize your out-of-pocket expenses whenever possible.

For those without insurance or for labs that may not be covered, we offer access to various wholesale lab plans. Additionally, you can use services like Ulta Lab Tests (ultalabtests.com/amiehornaman), which often provide labs at prices that can be even cheaper than your insurance copay.

Our goal is to ensure you have affordable and convenient options for the lab testing you need to support your health journey.

Our clinic is pleased to serve thyroid and hormone patients starting at age 21 and up. We specialize in addressing the unique needs of adults as they navigate thyroid and hormonal imbalances, helping you feel your best at every stage of life.

Because we know our stuff! Our clinic is one of the few that truly specializes in thyroid and hormone care. This is our passion and our expertise—we don’t dabble in it; we live and breathe it.

If you’ve been dismissed by other doctors, told your labs are “normal,” or left feeling frustrated and unheard, you’re in the right place. We take a deep dive into your symptoms, labs, and history to uncover what’s really going on, and we tailor your treatment plan to meet your unique needs.

Our goal? To help you feel heard, understood, and—most importantly—better. If you’re ready for a team that will leave no stone unturned in getting you back to optimal health, we’re here for you.

Absolutely! Many of our patients come to us after feeling frustrated or let down by previous treatments. Whether you’ve been told your labs are “normal” despite feeling awful, experienced side effects from the wrong medications, or felt unheard by other providers, we’re here to change that.

We also understand the frustration of seeking help from so-called “functional medicine” practices that don’t truly specialize in thyroid or hormone care but are happy to take your money. These practices often miss the mark when it comes to correctly diagnosing and treating these complex conditions. That’s where we’re different.

We take a comprehensive and personalized approach to thyroid and hormone health. That means we:

• Perform a deep analysis of your labs, including advanced panels that go beyond just TSH or basic hormone levels.
• Listen to your symptoms—because your experience matters just as much as the numbers on a lab report.
• Tailor your treatment to your unique needs, whether it’s optimizing your thyroid with T3, natural desiccated thyroid, or finding the right bioidentical hormone therapy.

Our goal is to get to the root of the problem and create a plan that works for you, so you can finally feel like yourself again. If past treatments haven’t worked, or you’ve been burned by a practice that didn’t deliver, don’t give up—there’s a better way, and we’re here to help you find it.

Yes, we do! In fact, nutrition and lifestyle are critical components of our approach to thyroid and hormone health. Medications and supplements are important, but achieving optimal wellness often requires addressing what you’re eating, how you’re moving, and the overall balance in your life.

Here’s how we incorporate nutrition and lifestyle into your treatment:

• Customized Nutrition Plans: We provide guidance tailored to your specific needs, whether it’s balancing blood sugar, supporting thyroid function, or addressing inflammation.

• Lifestyle Recommendations: From stress management techniques to improving sleep hygiene, we focus on habits that can make a significant impact on your health.

• Targeted Support for Specific Goals: Whether it’s weight loss, energy improvement, or hormone balance, we design strategies to help you reach your goals holistically.

Our goal is to empower you with the tools and knowledge to make sustainable changes that enhance the effectiveness of your treatment and support long-term health. It’s not just about what to take—it’s about how to live!
