About

Juvecore Health is a hormone and wellness clinic in Tacoma built upon the belief that advanced therapies should be accessible to everyone. Our work leverages hormone optimization to extend your healthspan and support your long-term health.

A Modern Wellness Clinic in Tacoma Built for You

At Juvecore Health, we’re dedicated to helping people feel stronger, healthier, and more active as they age. Our patients aren’t here for a quick fix. We work to improve your quality of life and help you feel like yourself again, whether you’re dealing with physical pain and fatigue or emotional changes like irritability, diminished confidence, and relationship strain.

We’re powered by the Seattle Regenerative Medicine Center (SRMC), one of the leading wellness clinics in Tacoma and the greater Seattle area. Our treatments go beyond the surface level to target key health concerns, including bone density, cardiovascular health, muscle strength, and the body’s overall resilience. Every patient’s plan is medically guided, lab-based, and continuously tracked and adjusted to support them for years to come.

Science-Backed Approaches to Help You Feel Your Best

We’re about no-nonsense wellness. Our treatments utilize clear, science-based medical guidance to address your health concerns, not temporarily mask your symptoms. You’ll be treated by licensed, full-time medical professionals, and they’ll design your customized treatment plan with extensive clinical oversight.

Hormone therapy is our primary focus at Juvecore Health, and we tailor your treatment to your unique concerns. The medical field has treated hormone therapy as gender-neutral for decades, but we’re committed to researching sex-specific treatments and bringing our findings to our patients. Our wellness clinic is intentionally designed to cater to the needs, physiology, and lived experiences of women aged 40 and over.

“Coming from a health care practitioner's point of view, I can confidently state that Dr. Lucy Hostetter changed my life over a year ago. I could hardly function; I was so fatigued after menopause hit. Now, I am back to thinking clearly, rollerblading, and enjoying life! Dr. Hostetter is the most thorough physician I have met. She is an active listener, compassionate, keeps up to date on the literature, and is an exceptional practitioner. I strongly recommend her!”
