Avoid this doctor,
i was diagnosed with Graves disease, he gave me RAI treatment and ablated my thyroid, he didn't monitor my condition accurately, i was in a thyroid storm (extremely hyper) -he prescribed too high a dose, for too long a time of levoxyl (thyroid hormone replacement), and said that i was crazy that my tests were normal, he advised me to see a psychiatrist, and said ""join the crowd"". Thankfully he went away on vacation, & i saw his associate Dr Edwards at the time, he said my TSH levels were nearly completely shut down and that my medication should have been lowered a long time ago, subsequently this through me into early menopause. Dr Barandes is very dangerous I dont know how he holds a practice, please avoid him.
Pros: Zero
Cons: delinquent medical treatment & inappropriate behavior
