Dr. Dorota Pucyk, MD

"I was diagnosed with Hashimotos. I took the generic synthroid. I was still exhausted. Dr. Pucyk did an ultra sound, which no doctor had done. My thyroid was the size of a lemon and not working. I had surgery to remove it. They found the slow growing cancer in two places. She was right on it and saved my life."

"Sharon Powell I don’t know how to respond to your review or if I am even able but your review scared me for you. I’ve had RF treatments for years. They’re burning a nerve on your spinal cord with a laser. I get them for my back and they’re great. You can get them for a shoulder, knee etc. the nerve grows back and you have to do it again. For a thyroid?!?!? That doesn’t make any sense to me as all RF treatments do is numb the problem by killing the nerve. Be extra cautious"

"I saw Dr Pucyk for a benign thyroid nodule. She recommends radio frequency ablation to shrink the nodule since it's causing compressive symptoms; difficulty swallowing and talking. She told me she does not know anyone who does it and that I would have to do my own research. I told her that she's the medical professional and should find someone who does it since she's recommending it. She then gave me the name of an endocrine surgeon in Phoenix but doesn't know if they do it, and said if they don't know who does it up there then I need to find another endocrinologist who might know about RFA. I'm dumbfounded. Why is a medical specialist recommending a procedure that she seems to know little about? And to be told to do my own research? Isn't that what medical school is for? Does she not stay up to date with the practices/procedures in her field?"

"I was referred to Dr. Pucyk and I maybe saw her a maybe 5-7 times. She was very controlling and doesn’t want to discuss any options other than hers. I stopped seeing her during COVID because I have 4 autoimmune diseases and 3 of my drs said not to get vaxxed however, when visiting her while masked she I swear she bent over got in my face and began yelling at me saying “you are all going to die” just the fact that she would yell at a patient and not respect other peers decisions. To me she is rude and honestly not a good human! I never went back. I’m not sure how people can become a Dr. And not treat people with little or no respect. Oh I almost forgot I have asthma which was on my chart and she prescribed propanolol for shaky hands due to graves disease and it’s contraindicated for asthma I ended up having severe Bronchospasm and had to go to the ER and have continuous nebs. Sorry but she really doesn’t care about her patients."

"My oncologist referred me to Dr. Pucyk to look at thyroid issues, fatigue, weakness, and hormones. I was seeking answers and understanding. I have cancer and mets to my liver so I am very selective about what I put in my body. She spent over a half hour with me, peeling away the layers to pinpoint the moving parts and the causes for my situation. We have a plan, she will communicate with my oncologist and all 3 of us will move forward. I found her to be very smart, vigilant, attentive, understanding, looking at the whole person and not just the thyroid. It took a while to get in to see her but she reads the doctor referral’s about the patient before opening up the door. She’s not just filling her schedule with appointments. I feel like she has my back and not patronizing me. I’ve learned much from her already and I highly recommend Dr. Pucyk."
