Dr Jean Dodds I remember her saying years ago that when the T4 simple test is simply not good enough to rule out thyroid problems especially when repeat tests are at either end of the range - ie borderline low or high.\

Yes but most vets are not idiots! They know if there is a low T4, they can run a free T4 and other tests. To suggest that she is somehow the only vet who knows about the thyroid is just insulting to those vets who have more credentials than she does and do this every day. That's all.
