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.

Cheyenne
Dr. Robert Monger, 5050 Powderhouse Rd, Cheyenne, WY 82001
307-634-1311. Personable, and also, 1st doc to tell me that fibromyalgia and joint pain can be attributed
to hypothyroidism. Cheyenne
Dr. Jonathan Singer D.O., Family Practice, Hypothyroidism, 1810 Pioneer
Avenue, Cheyenne, WY 82001, 307-635-4363. www.docsinger.com. "Dr. Singer was so helpful. I've
been to so many doctors who didn't know anything, but Dr. Singer took the time to listen to me, and
found out what was wrong. I just feel like a totally different person. I highly recommend him." (added
1/04)
Another reader recommends Dr. Singer:
"In the Cheyenne area for 20 years, Dr. Singer has always been empathetic, caring and INTELLIGENT
about diagnosis and treatment of thyroid problems. He always balances the entire endocrine system as
well as the thyroid function. He was the first to use the Free T3 and Free T4 tests instead of TSH. He
always judges a patient's need for thyroid based on history and symptoms rather than just tests." (added
