Can anyone recommend an endocrinologist for thyroid (or, in my case, lack of thyroid) issues? Preferably one who listens to the patient and conveys a sense of empathy and concern? I'm in Simpsonville but I'm more than willing to travel for good care. Thanks.

I see Dr. Bruch in greenville. He is ok, I came from florida seeing an awesome thyroidologist (only 30 in the us). He does listen, he seems concerned but not a cozy type. I am happy with the treatment. I have seen him 2yrs now. I have had hashimotos thyroiditis for 13yrs now. I have been through many drs. It is very hard. I hope you find one that fits you. I would try him. I am not looking for a new dr. That is a good sign!
