Is obviously not an endocrinoligist that cares about patient feeling good. Because TSH is fine does not want to treat for hashimotos although I have all of the symptoms and my TPo antibodies were 37.3. Since the appt I have developed a goiter and have scheduled with two other endocrinologists. Hopefully I will find one that will help me. I deserve a decent quality of life as a human being. A simple does of armour thyroid would improve my quality of life. Doctor Zmelli did not care said he heres and sees this all the time. He wants to treat me for obesity instead of thyroid disease when I am obviously suffering. Luckily my primary care doctor recognizes this but just does not know how to treat it and is sending me to a specialist, and now second and third opinions. This endocrinologist did not tell me anything I do not already know and sounded like an infomercial on tv and told me I needed exercise. I feel bad for any other patients who are referred to him for thyroid disease because unless it is already debilitating they probably are not being treated. I would not recommend this endocrinologist to anyone. Perhaps he specializes in Diabetes. I started sobbing in the room with him and waited months for the appointment and left feeling alone, exhausted, helpless, and ready to give up. I left there with nothing. He did not want to recognize that I have thyroid disease because my TSH is "within normal range". The fact that my thinning hair, intolerance to cold, unexplained weight gain, dry skin, fatigue, adhd, I can go on and on, did not matter because my TSH was within normal range. My TPO antibodies were confirmed to be extremely high through blood work and because my TSH "was within normal range" I do not have hashimotos yet......what? what do you mean yet? You have it or you dont, my primary care doctor diagnosed me at the next visit. Maybe I caught him on a LAZY day? Well now I have to wait months to see another endocrinologist, I scheduled appointments with two different ones just in case if this happens again. I have since developed a goiter and my immune system is raging an attack on my thyroid but I am just obese and need exercise? I have been a waitress for 17 years and also run two businesses. Thank you for nothing Dr. Omar Zmeili. The appointment at your office was nothing but a waste of the little energy I have and money.
