THE NHS IS KILLING US! WE ARE FIGHTING FOR YOU!

NHS doctors are unacceptably forcing patients to self-diagnose, self-treat, and self-monitor due to a lack of understanding of thyroid related disorders. Our aims are to persuade the endocrinology and thyroidology specialty to rethink their diagnostic and treatment protocol for thyroid related disorders, to raise awareness of treatment options, and provide educational and emotional support to sufferers. Every patient has the right to optimal treatment, using synthetic hormone replacement or natural desiccated thyroid extract. TPA-UK is working hard to get you better healthcare.

TPA-UK knows that patients are desperately seeking an understanding and partnership with their NHS doctors to get the best treatment possible. So TPA-UK is also a support group set up to increase awareness of the prevalence of thyroid and thyroid related problems and the difficulties facing patients in getting a proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment. The information in our files and links is available free of charge.
