If you have Graves’ disease and want to use natural treatment methods to restore your normal state, you will most likely want to consult with a natural endocrine doctor. However, finding a holistic doctor who specializes in endocrine disorders like Graves’ disease is no easy feat. Of course, you may choose to speak with a “general” holistic practitioner. However, as someone who has personally dealt with Graves’ disease and used natural treatment methods with success, I recommend speaking with a natural endocrine doctor for optimal results.
But how do you find a competent natural endocrine doctor? The best way to find a good doctor is through a referral, because if you know someone who was treated by a natural endocrine doctor and received great results, then you definitely want to contact someone. Of course, most people don’t have that connection, so they resort to finding a doctor on their own.
You don’t need to talk to someone locally
While it would be great if you could find a natural endocrine doctor who practices close to where you live or work, the good news is that you usually don’t need to talk to a holistic doctor face-to-face. Assuming you’ve already been diagnosed with Graves’ disease by an endocrinologist or general practitioner and given a physical exam, then it’s perfectly fine to consult with a doctor remotely over the phone.
In fact, this is what I did when I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease. Since there was no local natural endocrinologist I could speak to in person, I was faced with the choice of speaking with a local naturopathic doctor who likely had some experience with thyroid conditions, or speaking remotely over the phone with a physician. . who had a wealth of experience in the treatment of Graves’ disease. I chose the latter option, since while I would have liked to speak to someone in person, I preferred to consult with someone with a lot of experience, and to this day I have no regrets.
In fact, there are some benefits to talking to a doctor remotely over the phone. A big plus is not having to wait in a doctor’s office to see a doctor, as I would be speaking to them from the comfort of my own home. Also, I didn’t have to drive to an office, deal with rush hour traffic, etc. So convenience is definitely one of the benefits of talking to a natural endocrine doctor remotely.
Using the Internet to find a natural endocrine doctor
Of course, you can also use the Internet to search for a holistic doctor who specializes in treating endocrine disorders naturally. You should be careful, as there are some physicians who may claim to specialize in endocrine disorders, when the truth is that they accept many other types of cases and, as a result, only see a handful of Graves’ disease patients. weekly or monthly basis. Let’s not forget that Graves’ disease is a serious autoimmune thyroid condition, so you really want to consult with someone who is very experienced.
Going back to searching the web, you can of course visit your favorite search engine and type in the words “Natural Endocrine Doctor” or “Natural Thyroid Specialist”, and then call a few of the doctors listed to determine which one might be a good fit. for you. In fact, I list some websites you can visit in my free guide titled “The 6 Steps on How to Treat Graves’ Disease and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis Through Natural Methods”.

Self-treating your condition can be risky
Some people who have Graves’ disease try to self-treat their condition using nutritional supplements and herbal remedies. I’m not a fan of self-treating any thyroid condition naturally, but it’s especially risky to treat Graves’ disease on your own. I am a healthcare professional and while I could have easily done some research and tried to self-treat my condition, I decided to consult with someone who was more knowledgeable than I was at the time. And while I have the knowledge today to help people with Graves’ disease and other thyroid conditions, I can tell you with certainty that if I had tried to self-treat my condition at the time I was initially diagnosed, I would not have received the same results. , and most likely I would not have restored my health to normal.
Although nutritional supplements and herbs play a role in helping people with Graves’ disease, not everyone with Graves’ disease needs to take the same type of these supplements and herbs. Also, of course, different people will require different dosages. Also, there are other important factors for recovery besides taking supplements. So while it may seem easy enough to visit your local health food store and pick up some nutritional supplements and/or herbal remedies, in most cases, Graves’ disease is too complex a condition to self-treat on your own. .
In short, finding a competent natural endocrine doctor can be challenging, but if you want to receive optimal results, then you should consider speaking with someone who focuses their practice on endocrine conditions.
