Im trying to find a doctor who does prescribe NDT (natural thyroid meds such as armour or naturethroid) instead of the synthetic synthroid. Hopefully one who will accept insurance. I am in the 22309 area of Alexandria. Thanks for any help.

Karen Myers, MD. She's an internist in downtown DC and an amazing doctor. She believes in treating thyroid disease aggressively. You'll never hear "well, your TSH is below 5 so you're okay," all old-school. She wants it around 1 and isn't going to wait to adjust your meds if it starts to rise.

I don't know what her current insurance policies are, or if she's accepting new patients, though.
