In 2018 I had my thyroid removed due to my doctor having found thyroid cancer. From 2018 until I met with Doctor Sexton’s team, I had STRUGGLED with weight loss. My body was swollen. My legs especially in the summer would swell up around the ankles, feet, and calves. I was wearing compression socks night and day just to alleviate some of the swelling. I had 4 thyroid specialists from 2018 to 2021 all tell me they didn’t know why my legs would swell. One primary doctor even told me to lose weight and cut salt and take a diuretic. Not one thyroid doctor told me that I should cut gluten, or that my autoimmune disease could possibly be triggering my flare ups/swelling or that diet could play a huge part. Through doctor Sexton’s team and getting my full panel of bloodwork done, and learning about foods my body needs and cannot handle, I am currently down 27 lbs and still going strong! Before, with diet and exercise if was impossible to lose a few lbs without gaining it all right back & then some. I have the tools now to continue on my healthy path and my body no longer hurts. I know what foods my body cannot process and what foods are best for me. I have had such great results here that I have told all of my family and friends about this clinic. They’ve honestly changed my life and I cannot wait to see how my body progresses as time goes on. I cannot say enough good things about them! Functional medicine works and they’re very educated and informative at this business.
