常见问题
What Is DUTCH Testing?
DUTCH (Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones) is an advanced, at-home lab test that provides a complete picture of your hormone health. It evaluates sex hormones (like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone), adrenal hormones (like cortisol and DHEA), and how your body metabolizes them. DUTCH testing can also assess sleep hormones (melatonin), nutrient markers, and stress response patterns throughout the day. Unlike standard blood tests, DUTCH uses multiple dried urine samples over a 24-hour period, offering a more detailed look at hormone levels and rhythms.
Why Use DUTCH Testing?
Gain insight into hormone imbalances related to fatigue, mood, weight gain. Available in DUTCH Complete (comprehensive sex + adrenal hormone panel), DUTCH Plus (adds saliva-based cortisol awakening response), and DUTCH Cycle Mapping (tracks hormones throughout full menstrual cycle). Ideal for both men and women for personalized, root-cause-focused care.
What Is GI-MAP?
The GI-MAP (Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus) is a quantitative PCR stool test that evaluates microbiome balance, opportunistic and pathogenic organisms, H. pylori with virulence factors, digestive function markers, inflammatory markers, gut immune markers, zonulin (intestinal permeability marker), and antibiotic resistance genes. Unlike traditional stool cultures, GI-MAP uses DNA-based technology to detect microbial patterns with high sensitivity.
Who Is GI-MAP For?
GI-MAP may be appropriate if you experience bloating or visible abdominal distention, chronic constipation or diarrhea, reflux or indigestion, IBS-type symptoms, autoimmune conditions, brain fog or fatigue linked to digestion, recurrent yeast symptoms, food sensitivities that are worsening, history of frequent antibiotics, or suspected H. pylori.
What does GI-MAP evaluate?
Pathogens (bacterial pathogens, parasites, viral markers), H. pylori panel with virulence factors, opportunistic overgrowth, commensal balance, digestive function (elastase, fat markers, beta-glucuronidase), inflammation & immune markers (calprotectin, secretory IgA), intestinal permeability (zonulin), and antibiotic resistance genes.
Do you take insurance for GI-MAP?
Insurance may cover medical visits and routine labs. GI-MAP is typically self-pay. Call for most updated pricing.
Is BHRT Right for You?
If you're experiencing unexplained fatigue, mood changes, sleep issues, or other signs of hormonal imbalance, BHRT may be a transformative solution. Our providers guide you through every step of the journey to feeling like yourself again.
How do I know if I am unbalanced with my hormones?
A Board Certified Provider will walk with you through this journey. They will do a head-to-toe evaluation including testing and physical assessment alongside your in-depth symptom checker to determine the root cause of your problem, then work on optimizing you.
What Actually Is BHRT medication?
Bioidentical hormones are compounds derived from plant sources that are chemically identical to the hormones your body produces naturally. BHRT is designed to help both men and women manage symptoms related to hormone imbalances including fatigue, mood swings, difficulty sleeping, weight gain, low libido, brain fog, hot flashes, night sweats, and muscle loss.

The Hormone Concierge in Orlando, FL offers bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, peptide treatments, and longevity medicine under Dr. Danielle Alhemovic...
The Hormone Concierge in Orlando, Florida, operates as a concierge-style internal medicine practice where hormone optimization serves as the foundation for comprehensive longevity and functional medicine care. Dr. Danielle Solomon Alhemovich, a board-certified internal medicine physician and certified bioidentical hormone replacement therapy specialist, leads the practice with a focus on addressing the underlying hormonal imbalances that affect metabolic health, energy regulation, cognitive function, and overall vitality. The clinic structures care around extended consultation times and individualized treatment protocols rather than volume-based appointments, allowing for thorough evaluation of each patient’s hormonal profile, metabolic markers, and functional health status. Patients in the Orlando area seeking alternatives to conventional hormone management find a practice model that prioritizes root-cause analysis over symptom suppression.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy forms the clinical cornerstone at The Hormone Concierge, with Dr. Alhemovich designing individualized protocols for both women and men experiencing hormonal decline or imbalance. For women navigating perimenopause and menopause, treatment plans address estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone optimization using bioidentical formulations tailored to symptom presentation, lab values, and individual metabolism. Men’s hormone health protocols focus on testosterone optimization, addressing symptoms of andropause including decreased libido, muscle loss, cognitive changes, and metabolic dysfunction. Thyroid optimization extends beyond standard TSH testing to include comprehensive thyroid panel analysis with attention to conversion issues, autoimmune markers, and the interplay between thyroid function and other hormonal systems. The practice incorporates peptide therapies into treatment protocols, including BPC-157 for patients addressing gut health concerns, tissue repair, and inflammatory conditions that often accompany or contribute to hormonal imbalances.
Dr. Alhemovich’s dual certification in internal medicine and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy allows her to evaluate hormone concerns within the broader context of metabolic health, cardiovascular risk, bone density, and chronic disease prevention. Her approach integrates adrenal function testing to assess cortisol patterns and stress response, recognizing that adrenal dysfunction frequently underlies treatment-resistant hormonal imbalances. Metabolic balance protocols address insulin sensitivity, body composition changes, and weight management challenges that accompany hormonal shifts, using targeted interventions based on metabolic testing rather than generalized dietary recommendations. The practice emphasizes gut health and microbiome testing as essential components of hormone optimization, since intestinal health directly affects hormone metabolism, nutrient absorption, and systemic inflammation that can disrupt endocrine function.
Patients at The Hormone Concierge in Orlando receive in-person consultations that typically span 60 to 90 minutes for initial evaluations, allowing time for detailed health history review, symptom assessment, and discussion of treatment goals. The practice utilizes comprehensive laboratory testing including sex hormones, thyroid panels, metabolic markers, micronutrient analysis, and specialized functional medicine testing to establish baseline values and guide protocol design. Follow-up visits track symptom resolution, lab value changes, and treatment adjustments, with Dr. Alhemovich modifying bioidentical hormone dosing, peptide protocols, and supportive therapies based on individual response patterns. The concierge model includes direct communication access between appointments, enabling patients to report concerns or side effects without waiting for scheduled visits. Treatment plans typically combine bioidentical hormone optimization with targeted supplementation, lifestyle modifications specific to hormonal health, and when indicated, peptide therapies like BPC-157 for patients addressing gut permeability or inflammatory conditions affecting hormone balance.
The Hormone Concierge serves Orlando and surrounding Central Florida communities with a practice model designed for patients seeking comprehensive hormone evaluation rather than quick prescription refills. The clinic’s focus on longevity medicine means treatment protocols address not only immediate symptom relief but also long-term health optimization, disease prevention, and age-related decline. Dr. Alhemovich’s internal medicine background ensures that hormone optimization occurs within the context of overall health management, with attention to cardiovascular health, bone density, cognitive function, and metabolic disease risk. The practice accepts patients experiencing symptoms of hormonal imbalance including fatigue, weight changes, mood disturbances, sleep disruption, sexual dysfunction, and cognitive changes, as well as those seeking proactive optimization before significant symptoms develop. By combining board-certified internal medicine expertise with specialized training in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and functional medicine approaches, The Hormone Concierge offers Orlando residents access to hormone optimization protocols grounded in both conventional medical standards and emerging longevity science.
