Why is a Particular Doctor No Longer Listed?
Doctors who were previously listed here are removed for a number of reasons.
* The doctor has requested that his/her listings be removed because: he/she does not agree with this site’s philosophy or patient-orientation; the practice is too busy and can’t accept new patients; the doctor does not feel comfortable handling complicated thyroid problems; the doctor did not agree with what was said in the patient recommendations; or the doctor said “take me off the list” and offered no explanation.
* The doctor has moved, retired, or died.
* The doctor has lost his/her license, or given up his/her license, and is no longer practicing medicine.
* Patients have provided negative input about the doctor that is of sufficient concern that, in the opinion of the editor, the doctor should no longer be on the Top Thyroid Doctors List.
* Thyroid Top Doctors would face legal concerns if we published specific information about why patients had negative opinions about doctors, or if we shared a doctor’s occasional ranting ”take me off” email, or if we publicized doctors with licensing problems. So please, if you see that a doctor has been taken off the list and want to know why, talk to the doctor directly. If you write to us to ask why a doctor was taken off the list, we’re sorry, but we won’t be able to answer you or share that information.

101 Bd. Henri Jaspar, 1060 Brussels, Belgium, 00 32 2 538 61 40.
"I changed endocrinologists three times before finding Dr. Rodzynek. I was exhausted all the time, even after having my thyroid gland removed and taking Levothyroxine. Dr. Rodzynek put me on a thyroid medicine containing both T4 and T3. He also put me on a low sugar diet because my body releases too much insulin each time I eat slow or fast sugar. I started feeling better in a few weeks and in the last year have lost 25 pounds. I feel fantastic and people tell me I look 10 years younger. I have recently moved to France, but return twice a year to Brussels to see Dr. Rodzynek, my savior."(August 2007)
