T3 specialist

7 years ago•3 Replies

I've just been referred to an endocrinologist and have a choice of 4, Altrincham, Stepping Hill, Wythenshawe & Manchester Royal. I want to see someone who specialises in T3. Can anyone help me as to which hospital to go to please.

If it is anything like down here in the south, there will be none that 'specialises in T3.' I hope it is different for you, good,luck

Ganstis,

There is no such thing as a T3 specialist. The specialism is in endocrinology not specific medications. If you want to know whether the endos prescribe T3 contact their offices to ask. Please be aware that NHS England are trying to stop NHS prescribing of T3 due to the extortionate cost.

Email louise.roberts@thyroiduk.org.uk for a list of member recommended endos.
