Any recommendations for a good endo in Victoria?

Dr. Lucretia van den Berg so anyone besides her would be good

Yeah, but I was hoping one of those links would allow you to contact someone for a Victoria recommendation? Networking, networking!

Thanks.

I don't think my dr will refer me though as my Thyroid tests came back normal according to him. I said I have at least 78% of the symptoms of hypo and he says I likely have metabolic syndrome.

Lucretia is very pro low carb but she is a bit flakey.

Dr David Miller is excellent but his partner, Dr Phillips is a pompous ASS.

There's a blurb on this page on finding a good thyroid doctor in Canada: http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.co...ind-a-good-doc/. If your issue is thyroid.
