Tampa, a center for dermatology care

The NPI registry lists 60 dermatology providers with an office in Tampa, 15.3 for every 100,000 residents: 2.7 times the national rate of 5.5 and above Florida's 6.7. Each serves, on average, about 6,600 people who live in the city.[NPI][ACS]

Within 10 miles of the city there are 60 dermatology providers, and within 25 miles 190, about 6.7 per 100,000 of the 2,842,426 residents in that radius.[NPI][ZCTA]

Tampa holds 28% of the 216 dermatology providers in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater metro area; the rest practice in its other towns. Across Hillsborough County the figure is 6.5 per 100,000: 97 providers for 1,489,634 residents.[NPI][OMB]

An online intake for pattern hair loss works the same from any neighborhood of Tampa. Sudden or patchy hair loss, or a sore, red or scaly scalp, is for a dermatologist in person.

The NPI registry (October 23, 2026) lists where each dermatology provider practices. A provider counts in the city when the practice address names it, and within 10 or 25 miles by the center of the practice ZIP code. Not counted: physician assistants, nurse practitioners, dermatopathologists. Rates divide by ACS 2019–2023 residents.

Who pattern hair loss affects in Tampa

Tampa's median age is 35.6, below Florida's 42.6: a younger city than its state. 85,725 men aged 40 and older live here, 21.8% of all residents, less than Florida's 25.4%. Pattern hair loss in men becomes more common with age; more than half of men over 50 have some.[1][ACS]

Tampa has 44,539 women aged 45 to 64, 11.3% of its people, less than Florida's 13.3%. For most women, pattern thinning begins in their 40s, 50s or 60s, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.[2][ACS]

Those are age counts, not counts of hair loss: the only prevalence figures are national, an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women in the US.[1]

Postpartum shedding, Tampa and Florida

Florida's birth rate is among the lower ones, 9.6 per 1,000 residents in 2024; that was still 224,389 babies born to its residents, about 613 a day. Tampa holds 1.8% of the state's 21,928,881 people.[NCHS][ACS]

Many new mothers notice clumps of hair coming out a few months after delivery. Dermatologists say it peaks about four months after birth and is temporary, with fullness usually back by the baby’s first birthday.[3]

If thinning outlasts that first year, a physician licensed in Florida can look for female pattern hair loss. Finasteride and spironolactone are never suggested during pregnancy, when trying to conceive or while breastfeeding, and minoxidil tablets are not taken while breastfeeding.[4][5][6]
