Hormone Replacement Therapy · Westchase, Tampa
Hormone Replacement Therapy at Our Tampa Flagship
In Westchase, bioidentical hormone pellets are placed and re-checked by advanced-practice providers, under the physician-led standard Dr. Tali Arviv set when she founded this practice in 2014.
A Cadence You Can See
The Follow-Up Is the Treatment
Hormone replacement therapy at our Tampa location follows a structured monitoring schedule. Hormone levels are evaluated before treatment begins, rechecked after four to six weeks, reviewed again at three to five months, and monitored less frequently after the first year based on your treatment plan.
Our Tampa location is supported by a 14-person team, including three advanced-practice providers. Dr. Tali Arviv, MD, founded the practice in 2014 and continues to provide medical direction for hormone treatment plans across the practice.
The same clinical standards are followed at our Miami and Ocala locations, helping maintain continuity of care if you receive treatment at a different Arviv location.
What a Plan Involves Here
Depth, Cadence, and the Pellet Itself
Hormone imbalance symptoms can begin as early as 30, so nothing here starts without lab work.
Three Advanced-Practice Providers
An APRN, an ARNP, and an NP anchor the deepest wellness bench of our three Florida locations, under one physician-led standard.
Blood Levels Around Every Re-Dose
Your levels are evaluated before therapy starts, re-checked at four to six weeks, again at three to five months, and less frequently after your first year.
A Pellet the Size of a Tic Tac
Placed under the skin in a brief office visit, it releases hormones steadily for four to six months. No daily dose to manage.
BioTE nutraceuticals are offered alongside pellet therapy here, and when low testosterone is the specific question, testosterone replacement therapy has its own page.
What to Expect
From Lab Panel to First-Year Rhythm
Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to the ones your body makes; what differs between practices is the process around them. Our wellness guide covers the same ground.
A Lab Panel First
Your levels are evaluated before anything is scheduled, so whether hormones are even the answer is settled by a number.
A Plan With Your Provider
Pellets are one delivery method among several; your provider covers the alternatives and what your results support.
A Brief Insertion Visit
A pellet about the size of a Tic Tac is placed under the skin and releases hormones steadily for four to six months.
First-Year Follow-Ups
Re-checks come at four to six weeks, then three to five months, then further apart, and your provider tells you what to expect in the first weeks.
Panel Before Pellet
Am I the Right Candidate?
This program opens with a blood panel rather than a symptom checklist, so the answer on candidacy arrives after your baseline labs. Symptoms point the direction and your numbers decide.
Reasons to Start With Labs
- Broken sleep, flat mood, and no drive have become the pattern rather than a bad fortnight.
- Measuring something appeals more to you than describing it and being believed.
- A pellet placed at intervals suits you better than remembering a pill every morning.
- Coming back for the re-checks that set your dose against your own blood is realistic, not just agreeable.
What the Numbers Can Rule Out
- Labs in range mean this is not your answer, and you get told that instead of started on something anyway.
- Hormone-sensitive cancer and clotting disorders in your history or your family change what can be prescribed.
- Pellets are one delivery route among several, and whether another suits you better is part of the conversation.
- This is ongoing medical care with monitoring attached rather than a course you complete and close out.
Three advanced-practice providers work at Westchase, the most of our three locations, and levels are re-checked around every re-dose. Book a consult and let the panel lead.

What Tampa Guests Say About Hormone Replacement Therapy
Hormone therapy does appear in what guests at this office write, including the pellet-and-blood-level cadence this page is about. Much of the rest of the record is about other services entirely, and we would rather say so than let a general five-star quote under this heading imply a hormone result. Read more reviews from guests across all three Florida locations.
“Marla has an awesome personality and you really feel taken care of when you are done. We ask alot of questions at our appointments and are always given the time and the answers we need. We live almost an hour away, but it is worth the drive for the care that we receive.”
“I am pleased to say that my appointment with Marla Schenck was fantastic and greatly exceeded my expectations! The office staff was extremely pleasant and efficient, and Marla carefully listened to my concerns and provided the type of treatment I was looking for (topical estrogens and testosterone).”
“Marla is amazing! She is incredibly kind, patient, and truly excellent at what she does. I have been doing my pellets with her for the past 5 years, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and professionalism she provides. I wouldn’t change her for anyone!”
Individual results vary. Reviews describe one guest’s experience and are not a promise of outcome.
