For Dr. Bragg, hormone optimization is more than a specialty. It is a mission rooted in his own personal experience.

“

I’m honored to be chosen as a Top Physician in Orlando for hormone health. My passion for finding a cure for ‘man-o-pause’ is how everything got started. I was only 45 years old and felt like I could barely get through my workday because of extreme fatigue and brain fog. After trying several other hormone therapies, I found a renewed sense of vitality through bioidentical hormone pellet therapy. From that point forward, I wanted to share my story with every client who was going through the same struggles.

Since partnering with Biote in 2017, Svelte MD has become one of Central Florida’s leading providers of bioidentical hormone optimization. The practice has performed thousands of hormone pellet procedures and earned Biote Platinum Provider status, reflecting its extensive experience in helping clients restore hormonal balance.

This recognition celebrates Dr. Bragg’s commitment to hormone health and improving the lives of clients throughout Central Florida. As the practice continues to expand its offerings, its mission remains focused on delivering personalized care that helps clients achieve their health and wellness goals.
