Senior Thyroid Testing — Free for Qualifying Los Angeles Seniors
All Seniors Foundation provides free senior thyroid testing for qualifying older adults across Los Angeles County. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we deliver evidence-based care at no cost — regardless of insurance status, income level, or immigration status.
Understanding Senior Thyroid Testing
Thyroid disorders affect 10-20% of seniors. Hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can mimic dementia, depression, heart disease, and many other conditions — yet are simple to treat once diagnosed.
Thyroid disease in seniors is frequently missed because symptoms overlap with normal aging. Routine screening catches it early.
