Starting your Primary Care with a Conversation, Not a Chart

We know visiting a new provider can feel overwhelming. You’re wondering: Will they actually listen? Will this feel rushed? At Advanced Optimal Healthcare in Lutz, we do things differently.

Our goal is to make sure every patient in Tampa, Carrollwood, Northdale, Cheval, and Lutz feels heard, cared for, and supported from day one.


Your First Visit: What Happens

When you walk in, we take time to sit down and have a real conversation. You’ll meet with Dr. Anilda Ortiz, DNP, FNP-C, who will review your full health history, discuss current concerns, and ask about your goals.

We may order labs, talk about long-term care plans, and offer education on wellness, prevention, or treatment options—whatever fits your needs.

There’s no rush, and no judgment. Just a welcoming space to figure out what your body is telling you and how we can help.
