Surgeon requests clearance from endocrinologist but primary doctor says I don't need clearance from them for BBL?

Asked By:spaghetti11 in Los Angeles, CA

Okay, my pre-op blood work is perfectly healthy except my TSH 3RD GEN is 9.0, but my FREE T4 range is normal. My doctor says I don't have hypothyroid and am cleared for surgery, but my Plastic Surgeon says he won't perform surgery until I get a medical clearance from an endocrinologist. What can I do? I've called 10 endocrinologists and they said even if I did go see them, my primary doctor would still be the one to give me clearance. My surgery is in 10 days, PLEASE HELP! Thank you
