Well I'm not from the Tampa area but I know there is a decent sized group there. I just don't know where and who they are. I suggest checking into the local LGBT groups and see who they use.
Personally I went through my therapist to make those arrangements with a local endocrinologist.

Edited. Removed the listing as the reviewer stated that the MD I found does not in fact offer HRT for MTF.
While many of us do use an endo any General practicioner should be able to help you. Perhaps are you willing to make a drive? The way my visits are set up I saw my doc 3 times fairly close together and now I see her every six months for lab work and script refills. So it's not like you have to be there every day or even every week. And you may be able to self refer.
