We have been going to Dr. Deer for several years both my wife and I are T1 Diabetic - he is great - takes the time, is understanding, great bedside manner and stays up to date with all of the newest technology and treatments. Takes into consideration all the other health issues and doesn't just run to 'blame' everything on diabetes like many Dr.s I was resistant to going back onto the Pump and CGM and with Dr. Deer's encouragement I did A1C improved dramatically. During Covid he kept his doors and phone line open when some did not. read more

I just met my new Endo, Dr. Deer. For many years, I have had a lot going on with diabetes and other serious endocrine system problems. I have also moved from one state to another and switched health ins. coverage several times. Therefore, unfortunately, I have seen about a dozen Endocrinologists. Dr. Deer is one that I recognize as "not a good doctor". I put that in quotes because I'm sure he is great for some people. However, my experience with Dr. Deer was not one that I could come home and say, "Wow, (s)he is a good doc that really knows what they are doing!". Endos like that are few and far between, but they do exist. A doctor I can trust is one that thinks outside the box. They keep up on new research and don't stick rigidly to the numbers they learned in school. They know and consider greatly, the human factor. They have good bedside manners. They have listened to their patients over the years, and maybe found a large number of them who have a specific diagnosis complain of the same certain thing(s) that don't fit with the description of the disease. So, they consider this and don't just dismiss the patient with a "doctor knows best" attitude. They run the tests, prescribe the medications, and don't give up trying. Although I don't know for sure, because of my experience, I don't have confidence that Dr. Deer is like that. One reason I can give is when I asked him if there are anymore thyroid tests other than TSH and T4, he said there is not. I know that's a lie. read more

This doctor is nice enough but he doesn't appear to know about thyroid issues. He wanted to remove my thyroid even though no cancer was found after 2 FNA's and 2 biopsies. I found another doctor, Suzi Kochar. She had me get another biopsy and send samples to a different lab. I am cancer free! I get to keep my thyroid! First do no harm! Why would you remove a perfectly good thyroid? My new doctor also ordered a complete set of blood tests on my thyroid hormones as well as iron, B12 and CBC. My tests were all perfect! Always get a second opinion! I am so glad I did! read more

James Deer is an incredible Endocrinologist. He is the type of doctor that really thinks through a problem and is guided by finding solutions for his patients. Anyone that has known him for more than five minutes will see that he is the smartest guy in the room, is well read, and really wants to help his patients with diabetes, thyroid diseases, and so on. I have had the pleasure of knowing James for many years and will continue to refer my friends and family to him. He is kind, compassionate, and a great doctor. read more

I have been seeing Dr Deer since my previous endocrinologist - who was also the head of the National Endocrinology Association - retired. Dr Deer is absolutely just as thorough as my previous Dr. He listens to me, pays attention to my complaints, and we come up with a plan of action together. I previously had thyroid cancer before I started seeing Dr Deer and have always found that other endocrinologists didn't bother listening to me. They looked at the bloodwork and said this is what your bloodwork says, so I don't care what you say. I don't find that Dr Deer is that way. He cares about his patients, will listen if something isn't working for me, and is an extremely knowledgeable Dr. I recommend him to all of my friends who have thyroid or diabetes problems, and if you're looking for a new Dr, I'm recommending him to you as well. read more

You are dealing with people with autoimmune diseases that need consistent and reliable care. Stop taking patients when you cannot handle your current call/patient volume without giving rude responses. DO BETTER!

Just a heads up to anyone thinking about going here, they require a referral faxed or emailed, you can't have a hard copy yourself, which is ridiculous. Also, the endocrinologist here is no longer accepting new patients and you will be seen by a PA. Positives: Thankfully the receptionist is very kind and respectful. She was also straight forward about scheduling with a PA only.
