Specialties
Dr. Leslie DeGasparis encounters many thyroid patients that are often under-diagnosed or poorly managed due to inadequate testing. Seattle Advanced Thyroid Health was founded by Dr. DeGasparis to take on these challenging cases to truly solve thyroid cases with symptoms including depression, weight gain, fatigue, anxiety, and restlessness.
Dr. DeGasparis finds solutions through specialized testing such as blood work, adrenal/hormone, and allergy. Appointments are often 30 to 60 minutes as she will take the time to listen and communicate with the patient. She views each patient as a ‘person’ that she wants to help rather than just a medical case number that she wants to solve. Through pharmaceutical grade supplements, right diet, and prescription (when needed), Dr. DeGasparis successfully improves the quality of life of her patients.
History
Established in 2015.
Dr. DeGasparis ran her primary care practice since 2002 and over those years, she took on and solved numerous patients with thyroid dysfuntion. A majority of her patients have already seen other doctors and explained to Dr. DeGasparis that they were told their blood results were «normal» or that they just need to continue taking Levothyroxine. Yet, they continued to lose hair, feel tired, or gain weight. Through Dr. DeGasparis’s medical approach, they worked together as a team and they found the cause of their symptoms. Knowing the cause, they found the right treatment with a resolution. As a result, those satisfied patients continues to refer their friends, family, and colleagues that suffers from thyroid symptoms.
Desire to help and improve the quality of life for thyroid patients became a reason for Dr. DeGasparis to found Seattle Advanced Thyroid Health in 2015.
