I am once again starting to experience issues with my Hashimotos and autoimmune diseases and I need…read moreto return to an Endocrinologist after years of stability on synthroid. Attempting to find a good Endo who doesn't simply look at basic blood tests or use the full array of diagnostics and literature and field research available is next to impossible. I immediately thought back to Dr. Jennings and decided to check if he was still practicing. In 2011, I had found Dr. Jennings by searching on a website that lists doctors who would be willing to prescribe Armour Thyroid, which had long been all but abandoned by mainstream practices due to the creation of Synthroid. Synthroid and generic Levothyroxine were causing me to have constant cardiac episodes, intense allergic reactions, hair loss, chronic weight loss, etc. Dr. Jennings is the only one who actually listened to what I was experiencing and gladly helped me try Armour and measured labs at every visit to track and adjust. He also ordered a ton of additional labs to track everything consistently to help expose any differential diagnoses or causality that would normally be missed. Due to some continued symptoms after switching to Armour, he also urged me to follow-up with several other specialists, including a Rheumatologist, Neurologist and Geneticist. This led me to discover the underlying liver disease, a liver tumor, and finally the autoimmune connective tissue diseases that I was experiencing most of my persistent symptoms from. This man answered a call from me on his personal cell phone from the beach on his vacation when I was having an adverse reaction to a low dose of prednisone. Forget the need for a beautiful practice and shiny things. No doctor (especially underpaid Endocrinologists) could afford to provide the level of care that he does if he were to focus on those things. He would need to see a half dozen patients an hour as a sole practitioner. You will be heard by this doctor, which is invaluable in today's medical world. You will find no better Endocinologist or doctor than him, I promise you.

I was guided every step of the way and made to feel very comfortable. Everyone was very patient with me and kept answering my questions until I understood what was going to happen. Everything explained was exactly what happened. Very minimal scarring - If you ever need thyroid surgery, Dr. Shifrin is the surgeon you want to do it!

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Shifrin and his entire staff. I had a large nodule that…read morewas pushing up against my windpipe and making it difficult to swallow. After my needle biopsy showed a positive reading naturally I was very nervous. I got in to see Dr. Shifrin within a week of the biopsy results to come up with a game plan. I'm on blood thinners so it makes for a complicated case. He did another ultrasound on it to confirm the size and he thought its in my best interest to remove the whole thing instead of half bc if the surgical biopsy came back positive then I would have to go back in and remove the other side. With me being on blood thinners for life it would be dangerous to stop again so that's what we did. Leading up to the day of surgery I kept in contact with Amy C who coordinated all my visits and paperwork. She was awesome! She took all my nervous calls and calmed me down every time. Post surgery I was swelling up pretty good so I reached out to Amy who then connected my with Tara the PA. She got right back to me in between their scheduled surgeries and saw me to look at the swelling. She and Dr. Shifrin both met up with me and did another ultrasound to make sure there was no fluid build up in my neck. After they saw me they went back to their next scheduled surgery. Tara followed up with me for the next couple of days to see how I was doing. The pathology report came in within a week and it was positive for papillary cancer. Tara called me again to go over it and was very compassionate and calmed me down. I just had my 2 week follow up with both Dr. Shifrin and PA Tara Corrigan and they were pleased to tell me that all the cancer was removed and I'm free of it now. My family and I thank everyone there for walking with us through this tough scary journey. If you're shopping around for a thyroid surgeon and happened on this review please take my word and come see them. You wont regret it!
