The thyroid; is a small bean-shaped body located in the neck area. This gland is responsible for producing hormones that regulate metabolism in the body. Other bodily functions facilitated by the hormones include body temperature regulation, heart rate, and energy levels. As a result, several bodily conditions arise whenever the it is not working properly. These life-threatening conditions include; thyroid cancer, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and goiter.

At Bay Area Endocrinology, we treat several endocrine disorders. The conditions we treat include; diabetes type 1 and 2, hyperparathyroidism, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, osteoporosis, testosterone deficiency, thyroid cancer, obesity, low T, pituitary disorders, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and Graves’ disease.

Medical professionals at Bay Area Endocrinology are motivated to provide the best care to patients experiencing any of the mentioned medical conditions. The team of experts at our foundation are well versed and experienced in the most modern diagnostic and treatment methods. They use the latest medical technologies to ensure every patient recovers to regain their well-being.

One of the crucial services we offer at Bay Area Endocrinology is the comprehensive analysis of the thyroid function of each patient. This ranges from comprehensive lab tests on the relevant hormones and a physical examination of the patient to a thorough investigation of the patient’s medical history. Only after the physicians have finished these processes can they determine if the patient is positive for the condition or the severity of the condition the patient is struggling with.

Through our state-of-the-art technology and strict compliance with the recommended processes, our physicians work very closely with our patients to help them recover once a diagnosis has been made. The medical professionals draw up a customized treatment plan depending on the patient’s needs. Our services and treatment methods include lifestyle modifications, drugs, and surgery, all designed to help the patients regain their normal well-being.

We are concerned that the various conditions are very challenging and threaten each patient’s life. However, we know that with the right care and steps to deal with the condition, any patient can lead a healthy and satisfying life. That is why Bay Area Endocrinology offers a range of treatment options and services to ensure our patients recover and regain their normal well-being. This range of treatment options includes:

  • Medications: our medical professionals and physicians may prescribe medications to our patients. The drugs work by reducing acute symptoms, restoring normal bodily function, and improving our patients’ general well-being and health. The drugs include Synthroid or Cytomel.
  • Surgery: in certain complicated cases, our physicians may recommend that a patient undergoes surgery. Surgery may be necessary for some instances to remove a part of the gland or the entire portion. Our doctors are experienced at performing thyroidectomy procedures thanks to our latest technology, equipment and surgical techniques. These guarantee the best potential outcome for our patients.
  • Lifestyle modifications: at times, thyroid conditions arise from certain lifestyles; thus, our physicians may recommend modifications to the patient’s lifestyle to help deal with the condition. Modifications may include: different eating habits, reduced stress and exercising regularly, which may reduce acute symptoms and improve thyroid function. By offering guidance and support, our physicians help patients formulate an exercise and personalized nutrition plan.

I was a Private Pilot for 34 years before contracting Type 1 diabetes after a severe case of food poisoning in March of 2008. My first Endocrinologist refused to assist me in working with the FAA to retain my Pilots license. I became a patient of Dr. Troya in 2010. Since that time he has put me on a Continuous Glucose Monitoring regime and helped me to stabilize my blood glucose levels to levels that will allow me to pass my FAA medical exam. His caring and interest in each patients personal issues as well as their medical outcome marks him as an outstanding physician.
