What is Northwest Advanced Thyroid and Hormone Health?

Northwest Advanced Thyroid and Hormone Health is an integrative, functional, and naturopathic medicine practice that works mainly by telehealth. Its office is at 3710 168th St NE, Suite A101 in Arlington, WA, and it sees patients in Washington and California. In its own words: "practicing entirely by telehealth, licensed in Washington and California."

Two prescribers are named. Dr. Liqaa Essam Naser, ND, MBChB, is the founder and medical director. Dr. Yalda Ataie, MD, also prescribes, and her description says her care is delivered via Zoom.

The practice lists six services: thyroid care, women's hormone health with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), men's hormone health with testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), PCOS, cardiometabolic health and weight management, and fertility and reproductive health. For weight management it names semaglutide and tirzepatide, and it also mentions metformin, berberine, and peptide therapy. It has a 5 rating on Google from 15 reviews, in the naturopathic practitioner category.

This listing is for its Arlington office at 3710 168th St NE.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. There is no consultation fee, no medication cost, and no monthly rate, and nothing says whether medication is part of any price. It is cash pay only. In its own words: "Because we work with you directly rather than billing insurance, we're free to give you the time your situation calls for." Many patients still use insurance for labs and medications, and the practice says it helps patients access testing and compounded medications where they fit a plan.

Most patients start with a structured six- or twelve-month program, then continue month to month. Ask for the full cost of that program in writing before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which prescriber will sign your prescription, Dr. Naser or Dr. Ataie, and whether that person can prescribe the medication you are considering. Ask whether the monthly program fee includes medication or whether it is billed separately. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, since the practice mentions compounded medications, and who fills it.

Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and whether labs go through your insurer or are paid to the practice. Ask how cancellation works once you move to month-to-month care. Ask whether any visits happen in person. The practice mentions in-person care, but describes its work as telehealth. Its office hours are Monday through Thursday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, and the phone number is (425) 905-0910.

A different web address is also associated with this practice, so confirm you are on nwthyroidandhormone.com before you share personal details.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live in Washington or California, are comfortable with care mostly by video, can pay cash for a program that runs six or twelve months, and want the prescriber and monthly costs settled before you commit. It is a poor match if you need prices before you speak with anyone, or if you need in-person visits the practice has not confirmed.
