Feel Better, Look Better, Live Better with Tampa Rejuvenation By Marcy Sanford Tampa Rejuvenation Founder and CEO Brett Markowitz wants to help people lead healthier, happier lives. During his 15 years in the health and fitness industry, he has seen many people who eat right and exercise but still can’t lose weight; and has even seen some that continue to gain weight despite efforts to lead a healthier lifestyle. He says, “Our patients come to us for many different reasons. Some have always been over weight; some have started to gain weight as they get older and can’t lose it despite exercise and dieting; some are suffering from depression and fatigue; some people are having sleep issues. And, for the most part, they all know something is wrong but they just can’t pinpoint what it is. At Tampa Rejuvenation we work with each person to create an individualized plan for their body, hormones, and lifestyle to help them live a healthier, happier life.” Tampa Rejuvenation opened their fourth location in June in the Covington Professional Park at 13648 Hillsborough Avenue. “We opened this office in response to the need of our patients,” says Brett. “We had many people traveling from the Westchase area to come to our offices and we wanted to make it easier for them.” Tampa Rejuvenation’s doctors include Johanna deVryer, MD – Board Certified Internal Medicine; Agnes Green, MD – Board Certified Anesthesiologist; Jeanna Hepler ARNP – Internal Medicine. Brett says, “Each of the doctors are specialists within their unique studies, and they all share a passion for the field of anti-aging and how it is helping to change patient’s lives. They are all A4M credentialed – this is where they go for additional education on how to slow up the aging process and prevent age-related diseases. They all work hand in hand to provide the

best patient care possible.” Since 2008, Brett and the board certified doctors and professional personal trainers and nutritionists at Tampa Rejuvenation have been helped hundreds of patients regain their energy and take control of their lives. “Our doctors look at the whole person and all of their symptoms and lab results to discover what is happening with their body,” says Brett. Patients like 42-year-old Stacey have seen amazing results. She says, “Tampa Rejuvenation offers a total healthy lifestyle makeover. I have had exceptional results over the last few months following their program – a loss of 40 lbs of body fat while gaining several pounds of lean muscle mass. I have lost approximately 22 inches from my bust, waist, hips, and thighs, not to mention the improvement of my overall well-being. When I wake up in the morning none of my joints are screaming anymore and my chronic neck, back, and shoulder pain is gone. I no longer feel exhausted and run-down throughout the day. My blood pressure, cholesterol and resting heart rate have dropped significantly. Tampa Rejuvenation provides support to cover every aspect of a healthy lifestyle and gives you the right tools to achieve these results all in one place. They have knowledgeable doctors, personal trainers, and nutritionists on staff to help every step of the way.” One of the many reasons Tampa Rejuvenation’s programs are so successful is that they recognize that no two bodies or body chemistries are exactly alike. They use an integrative approach to determine the most suitable blend of medical weight loss, bio identical hormone therapy, clinical nutrition, and exercise for each individual. The professionals at Tampa Rejuvenation take plenty of time meeting with each patient to assess their needs, challenges, and goals. Then, they perform diagnos-
tic testing to analyze your current health and well-being. After receiving and reviewing your lab results, your doctor will talk to you about your health history, the symptoms you are experiencing, and your goals. Then your doctor will work with a team of fitness and nutrition professionals to create a customized plan to help you reach those goals. Brett says, “Our medical team is comprised of on-staff physicians, clinical nutritionists, medical assistants, and personal trainers. Each patient has a team of professionals to help ensure their success. We treat people for what is really wrong with them instead of using a band-aid approach to treat symptoms as they pop up.” Brett says patients of all ages come to Tampa Rejuvenation for help and that there are many factors besides aging that could be throwing your natural hormone or thyroid levels off balance, including stress, genetics, lifestyle, and environmental toxins, which all can decrease the proper healthy level for your hormones. Once Tampa Rejuvenation gets your hormone levels back to normal, they continue to offer support and help to their patients through an on-going maintenance program. The nutrition and exercise specialists will develop a plan just for you. “We have developed just for Tampa Rejuvenation patients an Iphone or Android application specifically for our weight loss programs; it even prints out a shopping list for you to take to the grocery store,” says Brett. You also receive a workout video and recipes daily. The workout is tailored to
