Jessica & Joel Provenzano Offer A Unique Real Estate Combination

Choosing a real estate agent when buying or selling a home can be difficult. But, what if you could get two agents working for you instead of one — and they are both locals of almost 20 years, who have lived, worked and raised a family in this growing and changing community? 

Jessica and Joel Provenzano are RealtorsÂź licensed in Florida and they work together at Florida Executive Realty (FER)’s Tampa Palms office. FER, founded in 1992 at the former Tampa Palms Welcome Center (off Bruce B. Downs Blvd. on Amberly Dr.) by Doug Loyd and John Zielenbach, has now expanded to more than 100 agents in six offices across the Tampa Bay area, including Brandon and Lithia. 

“Jess and I are a team on every deal and for every client,” explains Joel. “We’ve been married for 18 years and found very early on that we actually work pretty well together, not just relationship-wise, but in professional settings, too.” 

“Our different skill sets complement each other,” Jessica adds. “I work more on communication and contracts and Joel does more research and is more hands-on with things like inspection reports and technical issues. But, we always work as a team for all of our clients.” 

The Provenzanos have been together since they were high school sweethearts who met as teens in Estero, FL. While dating, they worked at the same seafood restaurant, with Jessica working in the front of the house and Joel working in the kitchen. Despite their different roles, they found themselves constantly communicating on how to improve the service and flow of the restaurant. 

They moved to Tampa by 2004, got married and bought their first — and current — home in Wesley Chapel in 2005. While Jessica worked for several companies in sales and marketing and Joel worked as an engineer for 22 years, they still found ways to work together. For four years, they both worked at a local design and construction company, American Consulting Engineers (now American Consulting Professionals). They also volunteered together at Lifepoint Church in New Tampa, mostly in the kids and student ministry. 

Is this your idea of a dream kitchen? If not, let Jessica & Joel Provenzano help find yours, too.

About a year and a half ago, Jessica was the first to get started in real estate. She says she always had a strong interest in real estate because, as a child, she moved 18 times, due to her father’s job at Lowe’s, as he helped the home improvement warehouse’s underperforming stores. Thus, she became very familiar with both the moving process and financial challenges, such as dealing with multiple mortgages, which can happen when families move from home to home. 

Joel initially began working with Jessica only on weekends and after hours, but decided to leave engineering to work with his wife full-time in May. His transportation and land development engineering background, both for the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and as a private consultant, gives him tremendous insight into, and the ability to research, new construction, roads, permitting, inspection reports, damage mitigation due to the Florida elements and more He also provides research for this publication. 

“We are more than happy to take buyers to the construction sites and describe the stages of construction or map out how an empty lot will be transformed when construction is complete,” Joel says. 

Now that they’re a team again, the Provenzanos are putting their work and life experiences to good use — helping prospective buyers find their dream homes and getting sellers the best offers in the New Tampa and Wesley Chapel areas and beyond. 

Ashley Sullivan shares her experience buying her first home with Jessica and Joel. 

Jessica and Joel can help you find the unique elements you want when buying a new home, or provide great photographs of those elements in your home when selling. 

“I had the pleasure of working with Jessica and Joel Provenzano when purchasing my first home,” says Ashley. “(I was) new to the area and they were the perfect fit to help me find my dream home. Not only did they give me a good feel for the different neighborhoods, they also told me all about the area. Putting in an offer was incredibly smooth and I felt supported all along the way. Even with some bumps in the road, they handled everything quickly and professionally. They really made sure I wasn’t left in the dark. I honestly don’t think I could’ve found a better realty team.” 

Another client, Sam Benoit, says, “Jess and Joel were extremely helpful and detailed in every way. They were available anytime we had questions and made the process painless. It was more about finding the right place for us rather than making a sale for them. I would recommend them to anyone looking to purchase.” 

The Provenzanos are uniquely positioned to help buyers and sellers in New Tampa, Wesley Chapel and the surrounding areas. They were in their 20s with a tight budget when they bought their home in the Meadow Pointe II neighborhood in Wesley Chapel. They bought during a housing boom, which quickly became a recession. This taught them about home loans, refinancing and how to negotiate with lenders. 

With two daughters, Kayla, 13, and Lily, 12, and changing jobs and careers, they understand financial planning for the uncertainties in life. Their involvement with their girls’ schools, their church and the North Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce gives them awareness of the local community and helps them find business partners for inspections, appraisals and more. 

Jessica & Joel’s Tips For Prospective Buyers: 

‱ New construction has become extremely competitive, so this is one of the best times to buy a new construction home. In some cases, newly constructed houses can be more affordable than existing homes, even in the same communities. You will get better energy efficiency and upgraded finishes are basically standard now. 

‱ For many new communities, the builder’s lender has many incentives to keep their construction momentum going — more cash towards closing, interest rate buydowns and matching or beating rates from private lenders. Buyers should always work with a Realtor, especially with new construction, to get competitive loan offers. 

‱ Lenders crunch your numbers before offering loans, but that doesn’t always mean that their terms are comfortably within your means. While predatory lending practices have declined in recent years, it is important to have an honest conversation with a Realtor to make sure you get loans with terms that are flexible enough to fit within your budget. 

Tips for Prospective Sellers: 

‱ Our best advice for sellers is that the property must be priced correctly from the beginning. If it’s even slightly too high, it can lose momentum in this competitive market. You can always get more money for a property by getting the price right from Day One. 

‱ A knowledgeable Realtor will help you price your home for sale by performing market comparisons, also known as “comparables.” The Realtor will check on recently sold properties as well as properties currently for sale and how long they have been on the market. Then the Realtor can price the property appropriately to stand out among the rest. 

‱ Good photography makes a big difference. We do most of our real estate photography ourselves. We work with sellers to declutter and stage each room to look as appealing as possible to potential buyers. Unnecessary items can completely distract from the room being shown.

Community To Benefit From City’s New Tampa Sports Pavilion At Liberty, Too 

City of Tampa and Hillsborough County School District officials came out in force for the ribbon cutting at the new New Tampa Sports Pavilion behind Liberty Middle School in Tampa Palms. (All photos provided by the City of Tampa) 

What used to be six old, underused tennis courts just for students at Liberty Middle School in Tampa Palms has been transformed into a new recreational area for the entire community. 

The tennis courts are gone, and what stands in their place will now be called the New Tampa Sports Pavilion. 

The Pavilion includes three basketball courts that also can be used for pickleball, tennis and volleyball. 

Next to the courts, a huge metal shade structure stands over an artificial turf field. At 166 feet by 127 feet, it’s larger than four school buses lined up one way and three school buses lined up the other. 

A building with offices and restrooms is located by the covered field, too. 

On November 15, City of Tampa and Hillsborough County School District officials held a ribbon cutting to officially open the new expansion, which will be used by Liberty students during the school day and open to the public whenever school is not in session. 

The new basketball courts at the Pavilion.

District 7 Tampa City Council member Luis Viera, whose son attended Liberty, says the idea was suggested at a 2020 town hall meeting by Tampa Palms resident Alexandra Gilmore. He championed the idea, saying it would add to the other recreational opportunities that have been brought to New Tampa over the last several years. 

“This is another big win for New Tampa and a really big deal,” says Viera. “It’s a $4-million expansion, and when you include the $3-million expansion of the New Tampa Recreation Center and multi-million-dollar All-Abilities Park, it represents a nearly $10 million investment in parks for New Tampa since 2018.” 

He’s referring to the playground that opened at the New Tampa Community Park one year ago, the first of its kind in the city that is designed for kids of all abilities, especially those who may not be able to play at typical playgrounds because they use a wheelchair or have other special needs. 

Viera says that investment has made a significant impact. 

Dist. 7 Tampa City Councilman Luis Viera speaking at the ribbon cutting.

“New Tampa has gone from being a city park desert, where all we had was a rec center that was busting at the seams,” he says, “to being home to the city’s first All-Abilities Park and now this additional expansion.” 

The new rec center expansion is located adjacent to the New Tampa Community Park on the property of Liberty at 17400 Commerce Park Blvd. 

The ribbon cutting on Nov.15 was attended by Viera, City of Tampa Mayor Jane Castor, Hillsborough County School Board members Jessica Vaughn and Lynn Gray, and Hillsborough’s Superintendent of Schools Van Ayres. 

Viera says the public access to the courts will be scheduled after school ends each day, during school holidays, weekends, and summer. 

City of Tampa manager of athletics, aquatics and special facilities Heather Erickson says the New Tampa Sports Pavilion has experienced something of a soft opening and expects to be fully operational around January 1. 

She says security lights are in place, but the courts themselves are not yet properly lighted, so they currently are only open until sundown. 

Starting in 2024, the pavilion will be staffed for open basketball and pickleball nightly, plus scheduled activities. 

“Our obligation is to make sure it’s not just a hangout without supervision,” Erickson says. “We also offer classes such as sports readiness for girls and boys, fitness and agility.” 

For more information, she says check the City of Tampa website at TampaGov.net after Jan. 1. Navigate to “Parks & Rec,” then “Activities,” then “Athletics.” For questions about using the facility, reach out to Tampa’s supervisor of athletics Cedric Smith at Cedric.Smith@tampagov.net. 

Jeffrey Allen Inc. — Where Golf Cars Are A 50-Year Family Tradition! 

(l.-r.) Ben, Craig & Jeff Sverdlow. (All photos provided by Jeffrey Allen Inc.) 

Established in 1970 by Alan B. Sverdlow, Jeffrey Allen Inc. has evolved into a prominent third-generation, family-owned golf car dealership and service provider. Initially focused on distributing deep-cycle batteries to the golf course industry, the company underwent a transformative phase under second-generation CEO Jeff Sverdlow, who, driven by his love of golf, helped Jeffrey Allen Inc. become one of the largest and most successful factory-authorized commercial dealers of Club Car Inc. in Florida. 

Alan Sverdlow (far left) founded Jeffrey Allen Inc. in 1970. 

In the 1990s, the third-generation brothers, Ben and Craig Sverdlow, assumed key roles in the business. Recognizing untapped opportunities in the commercial marketplace, they strategically expanded the company’s offerings beyond the golf industry. 

With locations in Tampa, Orlando, and Ft. Lauderdale, Jeffrey Allen Inc. also rents HuntVe electric UTVs, Westward utility vehicles, Madjax electric vehicles, and Garia luxury golf cars and owns one of the largest fleets of rental vehicles in Florida, in addition to its golf car sales. The company also just entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with Bolt Energy USA. 

Ben Sverdlow, Owner and President, explains, “Over the last 10 years, the focus shifted once again to selling consumer golf cars (Note — although most people still call them golf carts, Sverdlow and his employees call them golf cars because of the years of dramatic improvements in the performance of the vehicles) used for recreation and aftermarket lithium battery development and sales. Most recently, we’ve launched a new division selling aftermarket lithium batteries. Bolt Battery USA has been launched and is gaining a lot of traction. Bolt products were designed for the harsh workload required to power high-performance golf cars.” 

Jeffrey Allen Inc. allows clients to customize their dream golf cars in person or conveniently online. When a customer “builds” a golf car online, they have to select a dealer. Jeffrey Allen Inc. then works with them on building, customizing, financing and delivering their new vehicle. Customers also have the option to pick up their golf cars with their own trailers. 

Carlos Roque, Jeffrey Allen’s VP of Sales, describes what separates the company from its competitors. 

“As one of the largest dealers in the nation,” Roque says, “our brand and reputation are very important to us. With all the new golf cars entering the market, selling the product is secondary to quality service after the sale.” 

He adds that today’s customers seek top-notch service when shopping for their golf car brands. “Parts availability, serviceability and support from the manufacturer are important features we hone in on when selecting new products to represent,” Roque says. “Our customers have supported us for over 50 years because of our commitment to them. ‘The customer comes first’ is not just a catch phrase at Jeffrey Allen Inc.; it is part of our core values and our decision-making process. Simply, if it’s not good for our customers, it is not good for our company.”

Sverdlow and his team work hard to keep up to date with the latest trends and technological advancements in the industry. 

“Fortunately, our primary brands of vehicles we represent are all ‘tip of the spear’ when it comes to innovation,” Sverdlow says. “We also participate in best practice groups, read every trade publication available and are quick to test and vet new products as they become available. We are very cautious about what brands we sell. All products we represent must be of the highest quality for our clients.” 

As an industry expert, Sverdlow offers new golf car customers some advice. 

“Golf cars are equipment, and all equipment eventually breaks,” he says. “We highly recommend you purchase an American-made vehicle where parts availability is good and there are many servicing dealers who can support you down the road.” 

Promising fair and transparent pricing, the company services most makes and models and offers mobile repair field technicians in Hillsborough, Pasco, Pinellas, Hardee, Hernando, Polk, Manatee and Sarasota counties. If the repair can’t be completed at your location, the golf car will be transported to the shop at no additional cost. 

Satisfied customer Christian de Paulsen left one of the hundreds of five-star Google reviews you’ll find of his experience with Jeffrey Allen Inc. 

“I just took delivery of my brand new 2024 Club Car Onward golf car, and I have to say it was well worth the wait!!! The team at Jeffrey Allen Inc. Tampa went above and beyond, ensuring an outstanding buying experience
Of course, I can’t forget the team that built our car to exactly our customizations. The entire team did an amazing job! I would highly recommend to anyone looking to buy a golf car to go by and check out Jeffrey Allen Inc. You won’t be disappointed.” 

Not only does the company sell golf cars and batteries, it also offers rental golf cars for commercial and special event purposes. 

Commercial golf cars are built to withstand heavy-duty usage for most commercial applications. They are used in many industries, such as resorts, hotels, building and lawn maintenance, municipalities and educational institutions. 

“Golf cars have become very important tools at commercial facilities,” Sverdlow says. “These operations simply don’t function without their utility vehicles. Our commercial golf and utility rental team provides services for many types of events. Our golf cars are used for things like event set-up, material handling, transporting personnel, security, refuse removal, engineering and administrative purposes.” 

For special events, 2-, 4- and 6-passenger rental golf cars have become popular for weddings, church events, corporate and nonprofit events, parades, fairs, festivals, concerts, sporting events and golf tournaments. 

“Especially in Florida, golf cars have become part of the lifestyle,” Sverdlow says. “Many communities have embraced them as excellent modes of transportation and have reduced the need for parking. We believe that more communities and municipalities will continue this trend, drafting rules and laws that are favorable to this small wheel-powered vehicle market.” 

He adds, “Consumers have embraced the golf car to ‘have fun’; it’s become part of our culture here in Florida. Our consumer golf cars are custom-outfitted by the customer. Whether it’s a paint job, reupholstered seats, or speed modifications, the options are endless.” 

The company also takes accessibility into consideration with each car. 

“We work closely with our manufacturer to design ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliance and other specialty vehicles, such as accessibility for wheelchairs and emergency vehicles used by first responders,” explains Roque. 

Jeffrey Allen Inc.’s success is measured in business milestones and the stories of families creating enduring memories through shared experiences with their golf cars. The company actively engages in philanthropic initiatives, supporting local activities for veterans, children and food drives, underscoring a commitment to community impact. 

Sverdlow says the favorite stories the company hears are how often their golf cars have brought families together, allowing them to enjoy outdoor activities. 

“The simple trip to the grocery store becomes an adventure for young kids and teens when they ride in the golf car with their parents,” he explains. “An evening ride around the neighborhood, a ride to the community pool and social events are just a few ways our customers enjoy their golf cars. (They spend) quality time talking, laughing and making memories on our products.” 

The West Coast division of Jeffrey Allen Inc. is located at 4401 U.S. Hwy. 301, Tampa, and is open Mon.- Fri., 8 a.m.-5 p.m., and on Sat. by appointment. For more info, call (800) 282-6256, visit JeffreyAllenInc.com/west-coast-greater-tampa.

New Apartments To Bring Traffic Changes To Bruce B. Downs 

Research by Joel Provenzano 

The still unnamed new apartment community under construction on BBD Blvd. 

An unnamed, under-construction 248-unit apartment complex on Bruce B. Downs (BBD) Blvd. (south of the northern terminus of Eagleston Blvd. and the Wells Fargo Bank) in Seven Oaks also includes some future traffic pattern changes on BBD. 

The complex, which is owned and being developed by Mast Capital — which also is redeveloping the nearby Saddlebrook Resort and its surrounding community — is being required to make some significant changes in anticipation of the additional BBD traffic the complex will generate. 

As the apartment community nears completion, construction of these roadway improvements has begun and motorists on BBD will soon notice even more significant mainline roadway work over the coming weeks. 

The map of the new apartments and the changes planned for BBD in the area. 

All of the roadwork on and near BBD is being paid for and completed by the developer of the apartments (currently known only as “5101 Bruce B. Downs Apts.”) — other than a new traffic signal to be located south of the community’s entrance (and the existing Frontier Communications building). That signal, which had no timeline as we went to press, will be paid for by the developers of Wiregrass Ranch, which is located across BBD from the new apartment community. 

Here’s a breakdown of the coming traffic changes on BBD: 

1) The primary entrance (see photo below) to the 16.24-acre complex will be a gated right-in/right-out only. This means traffic intending to enter the development coming from the south on BBD will be required to use a long northbound U-turn lane that the developer will be constructing, which will feed into a new, long southbound right turn entrance to the apartments. The right turn lane is being made extra long so a bus stop pad can be placed north of the area for U-turning traffic to enter the turn lane. The pad will be connected by a sidewalk that will enter directly into the apartments for ease of access. 

2) In order to accommodate this nonstandard median opening for the U-turn, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is requiring that the existing adjacent median opening on BBD serving Wells Fargo (entrance is in gray on map) will be closed. 

3) In addition, the existing northbound left turn lane serving that opening will just be connected to the existing one for the traffic signal, making for an extra long turn lane going southbound. 

Moreover, because of the size of the apartments, an emergency access driveway is required by the county at the north end of the property, just south of the bank, that won’t be open to other traffic. 

With all of these changes in the works, vehicles both exiting Wells Fargo and the new apartments that intend to go north will have to go down to another new southbound U-turn lane that will be attached to the existing median opening in front of the Frontier Communications Hub building located south of the apartments. 

The U-turn lane is being made long and wide enough for it to be converted in the future to southbound dual lefts, as this median opening will serve as the future location for a traffic signal at BBD and the “Wiregrass Bypass Rd.” that will connect BBD to Wiregrass Ranch Blvd. (south of Walmart) and eventually swing up to connect with SR 54 near Saddlebrook. 

At our press time, we had no word from Wiregrass Ranch developer JD Porter regarding the anticipated date as to when construction of the new Bypass Rd. or the traffic signal at BBD and the Bypass Rd. will begin. 

But, as always, we will keep you posted as more info becomes available. 


Shown here is the only entrance to the 5101 BBD Apts. The entrance will be gated and vehicles exiting the complex will have to make a right turn out and U-turn at a future median opening on BBD a little to the south of the entrance.

IV Harmony Clinic & Medical Wellness — More Than Just Another Med Spa!

Led by the husband-and-wife team of Gabriel Vargas and Certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) Jessica Rosado, IV Harmony Clinic & Medical Wellness offers preventive and primary care, diagnostics, wellness programs and holistic therapies — all conveniently located under one roof on County Line Rd. (in the new Publix plaza at Livingston Ave.) in Lutz. This inclusive approach to wellness distinguishes IV Harmony Clinic from traditional medical offices that focus primarily on treating illnesses. 

Twenty-three years ago, Vargas, the company’s president and CEO, transitioned from what he admits was an unhealthy lifestyle to advocating for a proactive focus on wellness. “I’m living proof prevention is the best way to go.” 

Prevention is what became the catalyst for creating a medical clinic dedicated to helping others choose the same type of path. 

IV Harmony Clinic’s Medical Director Dr. Victor Feliz. 

Rosado, IV Harmony’s chief operating officer, completed her nursing degree at Antillean University in Puerto Rico and earned her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree and FNP-C certification from AGM University in Florida. She also has Gerontology Nursing (Gero-BC) and FMCSA (DOT) certifications. Rosado draws from 16 years of experience in cardiac emergencies and seven years at the Moffitt Cancer Center working with cancer patients. Motivated by the stories of her patients, Rosado pursued her MSN to help her patients shift their focus from trying to cure illnesses to promoting overall health. Registered Nurses JosĂ© Del Valle and Sara Wallace and Licensed Esthetician Alexys Goff also assist Rosado. 

“As a Family Nurse Practitioner, I can care for children to seniors,” Rosado says. “We have treated children from 7 years old — with the consent of their parents — up to 100 years old. We give you the tools your body needs to feel better.” 

She adds, “I have spent the last 24 years in a healthcare setting — and the last three years in the role of FNP-C. We started IV Harmony in 2022 as a mobile service and opened our doors to the public in our first (brick & mortar) clinic in May 2023.” 

In 2022, IV Harmony’s Medical Director Dr. Victor Feliz, a cardiologist who is a Fellow of both the American College of Cardiology (FACC) and the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (FSCAI) with 22 years of experience, joined the team. Dr. Feliz finished his Internal Medicine residency at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in Manhattan, NY. He later had a Cardiology fellowship at the University of South Florida (USF) in Tampa, following a Geriatric Medicine fellowship. 

Weight-Loss Programs 

IV Harmony Clinic employs a comprehensive approach to help you achieve your weight-loss goals. The Clinic’s physician-supervised programs include semaglutide (like the brand names Ozempic or Wegovy), tirzepatide (like the brand Mounjaro), peptides for weight loss, as well as a protocol that combines a low dose of Naltrexone, plus Sermorelin, Lipo-Trim SL, and low-calorie intake to achieve optimum weight-loss results. 

IV Harmony Clinic weight-loss patients weigh in each week on the clinic’s InBody 570 Body Composition Analyzer. 

Rosado says that lately, “Semaglutide is the most requested weight-loss medication” at IV Harmony Clinic. “And we only use high-quality semaglutide from the best labs. This treatment isn’t for everyone, so we also offer several other medical weight-loss options. But, our patients who qualify for semaglutide treatment do very well with it.” 

Rosado will identify your underlying health issues impacting weight loss through a detailed medical evaluation, including history, an examination and potential tests. IV Harmony Clinic weight-loss patients also weigh in each week on the clinic’s high-tech InBody 570 Body Composition Analyzer, which measures not just your weight, but also your body fat, muscle and water levels. 

“Our weight-loss programs are personalized plans tailored to each patient’s age, gender, medical conditions, activity level and objectives,” Rosado says, adding that some patients are referred to Registered Dietitians and nutritionists. “The patients who get the best results combine calorie control with increased physical activity, and behavior modification. We provide ongoing monitoring, medication, supplements and, if needed, referrals for psychological support.” 

She also explains that, “When I know the patient’s background, I can give them options and guide them. Then, we work together to get each patient to their goal.” 

Esthetic Services, Too! 

Rosado and Vargas did their due diligence when looking for the right esthetic services for their clients. They chose SkinPen microneedling from Crown Aesthetic for IV Harmony because they knew the safety and research behind the product. SkinPen employs sterile needles to stimulate collagen and elastin production, promoting skin rejuvenation. Patients also can experience revitalization with BotoxÂź and Dysport treatments. The Clinic also offers peptide hormone therapy, which targets muscle restoration and stimulates human growth hormone (HGH) production. 

“When you look in the mirror, and you look younger and better, it helps you feel better,” says Vargas. 

Rosado adds, “At this time of year, we definitely see a lot more patients looking for BotoxÂź and filler treatments. Everyone wants to look better for the new year.” 

PEMF, PRP & More 

IV Harmony patients also can explore the benefits of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF), a non-invasive approach that utilizes electromagnetic fields to enhance cellular health and promote healing processes. 

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, processing it to concentrate the blood’s platelets and injecting this platelet-rich plasma into the body. Rosado says PRP therapies can help patients with everything from injuries and musculoskeletal pain to cosmetic procedures. It also can be used in conjunction with microneedling. 

Hydrodermabrasion combines water and exfoliation to effortlessly exfoliate and reveal healthier, more radiant skin texture. 

HRT & Low Testosterone 

Tailored to each individual’s needs and addressing hormonal imbalances in women, IV Harmony Clinic’s Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) tackles symptoms like fatigue, hot flashes, low libido, memory and sleep issues and mood swings. 

And, for men with low testosterone, the clinic’s Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) provides effective solutions. Vargas explains that IV Harmony has many success stories, especially referencing a patient with “Low-T” complaining of all-over body pain. 

“For a man, a good number is around 600, and insurance doesn’t want to cover you if you are at 200, which is extremely low. We started treating this patient with testosterone, which increased his levels, and the pain in his body disappeared.” 

Available IV Nutritional Therapies 

IV Harmony Clinic also offers a wide variety of intravenous (IV) nutritional therapies, which rapidly and efficiently deliver essential vitamins and nutrients to the body through the patient’s veins. These therapies — which provide your choice of a variety of B vitamins, Vitamin C, Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium and Zinc, are designed to contribute to the patient’s overall health and wellness. 

Rosado says IV therapy delivers essential nutrients directly to the system, making it beneficial for deficiencies, immune support and for providing energy boosts. Bypassing the digestive system enhances absorption of these nutrients, aiding individuals with digestive issues. The therapy supports detoxification, boosts immune function, improves athletic performance, aids hangover relief and promotes skin health through nutrient and antioxidant support for collagen production. 

Monthly Memberships 

IV Harmony Clinic & Medical Wellness offers a convenient membership program for monthly infusions. Members receive discounts on any service at the Clinic and also are allowed to share their IV treatment services with their family members. While IV Harmony does not accept health insurance, it does accept HSA and FSA and patients also can use their Care Credits. IV Harmony also offers a rewards program for referrals. 

When not at their clinic, Vargas and Rosado are cycling fans who assemble at church on the weekend. They have a 12-year-old daughter and a pet guinea pig. 

IV Harmony Clinic & Medical Wellness is located at 2749 E. County Line Rd. in Lutz. The office is open Mon.- Fri., 10 a.m.-6 p.m., and 1 p.m.-4 p.m. on Sunday,. For more information, visit IVHarmonyClinic.com, call (813) 325- 3870.Â
