Beyond the Thyroid – Episode 26: Why Most Doctors Miss the Mark on Hashimoto’s Disease

Why do so many endocrinologists overlook Hashimoto’s—even when patients are struggling with fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and more?

In this episode of Beyond the Thyroid, Dr. Dana Gibbs unpacks the deeper reasons why mainstream medicine often fails to treat Hashimoto’s disease effectively. From limitations in evidence-based research to ethical and practical barriers in thyroid treatment, Dr. Gibbs explores why patients are too often told “everything looks normal”—when clearly, it’s not.

She shares her own clinical perspective and explains how her Thyroid Checkup Program offers a better path forward for patients looking for personalized care that actually makes a difference.
