Title: Trans-Friendly, and Experienced, Doctors Near Tampa, FL?
Post by: Julie Marie on August 03, 2015, 01:37:10 PM
We will be moving soon and losing our wonderful doctor.  We'll end up a couple hours south of Tampa and about an hour north of Ft. Meyer.  Any suggestions for finding a good doctor who knows TS medications & other issues?

I live in Tampa and use Dr. Barry Rodwick in clearwater.  Very nice and understanding, but not an endocrinologist-he is an internist.  Prescribes my HRT as part of his practice.  There were several physician groups at the recent gay pride march and vender show in St.pete.  They had 350 venders.  You might check their web site and look at the lists of venders.  I didn't need a new Doc, so didn't take any literature.  I know that they specifically had advertising RE HRT and various transgender services.  You will probably be looking for something in Sarasota.  My wife and I are moving there in the near future. This area has made an enormous psychological change over the last 10 years.
