Rendering of Building For Cardiology Physicians Group and North Florida Surgeons specialty group In Daytona Beach 760x320

AdventHealth hit a major step on construction for a new medical building in Daytona Beach.

The Altamonte Springs-based nonprofit health system recently topped off the $45.7 million, 60,000-square-foot medical office building and ambulatory surgery center. Located near AdventHealth Daytona Beach, the three-floor building started construction in February and is a joint venture with Atlanta-based Meadows & Ohly.

The building will contain four operating rooms and two catheterization labs, and will be the medical office home to the Cardiology Physicians Group and North Florida Surgeons specialty group.

It is slated to open in January 2024.

The project is a joint venture between AdventHealth and health care real estate services firm Meadows & Ohly. The architect on the project is Hunton Brady, and the general contractor is Brasfield & Gorrie.

Panama City Beach's first hospital 760x320

St. Joe Company, Tallahassee Memorial Hospital, and Florida State University are partnering on a new hospital in Panama City Beach.

“The goal is pretty simple. It’s to bring in more convenient health care services to residents on the beach,” St. Joe Commercial Real Estate Senior Vice President Dan Valazquez said. “This campus would just provide another health care option for those residents that may not necessarily want to travel 15 or 20 miles for health care services.”

But it’s going to provide much more than just healthcare. Medical students from FSU’s medical school will be rotating into this facility to get practical experience.

“The hospital will also be home to a variety of educational and research programs,” Panama City Beach Mayor Mark Sheldon said. “In partnership with FSU, it provides an opportunity for residency programs and clinical rotations for FSU medical students.”

The hospital will help keep physicians in the community during a national shortage as well.

“We know that physicians tend to remain in the communities where they train,” Sheldon said. “This truly allows us to expand our health care foundation and provide more opportunities for those medical students who want to remain in Panama City Beach.”

Construction on this first medical facility began in January 2022.

“This first medical office building will offer an array of services, including primary care, urgent care, cardiology, orthopedics, and up to five ambulatory surgery centers,” Valazquez said. 

Work will continue on a 100-bed hospital and more facilities that will comprise an 87-acre medical campus.

This first medical facility should be complete and operational by the summer of 2024.

Rendering of Sarasota Memorial Hospital's New Cancer Pavilion 760x320

Sarasota Memorial Hospital broke ground last week on a new cancer pavilion.

The seven-story, $220 million building is being constructed on Waldemere Street, across the street from the hospital’s oncology tower, which opened in 2021.

According to SMH, the 200,000-square-foot facility “will support an entire continuum of cancer care — from prevention, screening and diagnosis to treatment, clinical trials, survivorship care and lifetime support” — in the community.

Among the offerings will be diagnostic imaging suites with CT and MRI technology; medical, surgical and radiation oncology physician practices; integrative care clinics; and an expanded breast health center with mammography, ultrasound, stereotactic and nuclear medicine technology.

The pavilion will be the third facility to make up the Jellison Cancer Institute at SMH’s Sarasota campus. It is expected to open in late 2025.

Toby and Leon Cooperman Medical Arts Pavilion at Boca Raton Regional Hospital 760x320

On Nov. 13, Boca Raton Regional Hospital celebrated the opening of the Toby and Leon Cooperman Medical Arts Pavilion.

Construction for the Pavilion began a little over two years ago as part of the Boca Raton Regional Hospital Foundation’s (BRRHF) “Keeping the Promise” campaign, an historic fundraising campaign that to date has brought in nearly $270 million from the local philanthropic community, including $25 million from the building’s namesakes, Toby and Leon Cooperman.

Among the many state-of-the-art medical technologies housed in the new pavilion is a High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound machine, a non-invasive treatment that uses high frequency sound waves to destroy prostate cancer cells without damaging the surrounding tissue or organs.

The new Pavilion will be essentially a one-stop shop for medical care. The building houses doctor’s offices, medical specialty clinics and five new operating rooms double the size of the hospital’s existing ORs—all a stone’s throw away from the new, multi-story Eleanor R. Baldwin parking garage.

The next phase of the hospital’s “Keeping the Promise” campaign will include the opening of the Gloria Drummond Patient Tower, a 462-room facility that will give patients their own private rooms. Other future projects include a proton therapy treatment facility, a renovation of the existing hospital, a new central energy plant that will keep the hospital self-sufficient through emergencies, and more. Within 10 years, the total investment in the hospital will exceed $1 billion, including funds from Boca Regional parent company Baptist Health South Florida.
