She did nothing!! Told me she consult with the team then messaged me and gave me nothing except the wants to to go BACK to an immunologist to handle my daughters Hashimoto disease. Endocrinologists are the ones who are supposed to handle this disease!! She gave me no treatment options. Just said she agreed her thyroid did not need to be removed. Thanks a lot! We drove 6 hours and waisted a day for absolutely NOTHiING! We will not be back to Vanderbilt! What a complete waste of time and a huge disappointment for our family.
