Thyroid Talk with Dr. Angela Mazza, DO
Recorded: Oct. 6, 2023 & Oct. 12, 2023
SHOW NOTES EPISODE 23
RFA & Exclusive Interview of Jennifer Holkem
Host: Dr. Angela Mazza, DO
Co-host: Dawn Sheffield
I’m Dr. Angela Mazza, D.O., a thyroid, endocrine, and metabolism specialist with a private practice in Central Florida. My goal for this podcast is to define and demystify the thyroid gland, and thyroid-related medical conditions. By providing information in an easy-to-understand format, we hope to help patients better understand the ways in which their bodies work, and to help them thrive. My goal is to help us live more fulfilling lives by taking control of our health, to feel our best.
I do this podcast to provide life-saving education and encourage patients to see a doctor in time to prevent or minimize damage. That’s deeply fulfilling. I enjoy helping folks understand how all aspects of their lives are tied to both thyroid and overall health. In fact, this is why I went into endocrinology. It’s a medical art that combines science with the study of our lives—and all that they encompass.
To recap just some of what we covered in this episode, not necessarily in this order:
· Today’s show was a world-wide exclusive: the first interview of Jennifer Holkem;
· Jen’s mission: to educate patients AND providers re: non-surgical options for thyroid nodules;
· Why having safe, effective alternatives to thyroid removal is great for many patients;
· Jen’s dramatic thyroid journey and why she chose RFA for herself;
· Jen’s podcast, her non-profit, links, citations, and other helpful info streams: see below;
· And best of all, we learned that we CAN impact our thyroid health!
Dr. Mazza’s book, Thyroid Talk: An Integrative Guide to Optimal Thyroid Health is now available on Amazon. As a bonus, there is an online master course related to the book, to help guide you to optimal thyroid health.
