abilities. Our team’s talents and experience
are backed by innovative technology and
evidence-based therapies, combined to ensure
the best possible outcome for the patient.
NEUROSCIENCES & STROKE CARE
Neurosciences is a key focus at many of our
hospitals, with neurologists and surgeons
skilled in treating everything from epilepsy to
brain tumors and severe back pain. Our ERs
use the latest protocols and treatments to
ensure optimal outcomes for stroke patients.
Northside Hospital is a state designated
Comprehensive Stroke Center with onsite
interventional neuroradiology services.
ORTHOPEDICS
National recognition for clinical excellence
has been awarded to many of our orthopedic
programs, including Disease Certifications
from The Joint Commission. Our surgeons are
committed to performing the latest innovations
in their field including minimally invasive
procedures. Many of our hospitals offer
classes in advance of surgery to assist patients
with planning their hospital stay and recovery
after discharge. Several hospitals offer luxury
accommodations and amenities to encourage
quick return to daily activities and family
involvement, often in conjunction with spine
programs.
SPINE CARE
Spine injuries and illnesses can greatly impact
an individual’s quality of life. Our network
offers a full spectrum of resources to provide
an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan, and
many programs have earned Joint Commission
Certifications. Our spine surgeons perform
the most minimally invasive procedures
available today, with outstanding outcomes
and greatly reduced hospital stays. Medical
teams affiliated with our hospitals include some
of the area’s most dedicated neurosurgeons,
orthopedic spine surgeons, experts in pain
management, and specialists in physical
medicine as well as physical therapy and
rehabilitation.
Doctors Hospital of Sarasota is now performing
state-of-the-art spine surgeries using Mazor
Robotics’ Renaissance™. In many cases, this
means minimally invasive surgery with only a
few incisions, pinpointing the exact location
with extreme precision. Before entering the OR,
surgeons use it to pre-plan the optimal surgery in
a CT-based 3D simulation of the patient’s spine.
SURGICAL SOLUTIONS & ROBOTICS
HCA West Florida offers some of the most
efficient and well equipped operating rooms in
the area. Advanced systems from scheduling
to pre-op and discharge planning ensure
that patients receive the care they need,
while individual facilities provide a variety of
enhanced communications such as waiting
room monitors, free wi-fi and text messages
to keep the family updated on the patient’s
progress.
From single incision surgery through the navel
to the da Vinci
®
robotic system now available
at eight of our hospitals, we are providing
surgeons the tools they need to perform
complex and delicate procedures through
tiny incisions.
In addition to inpatient and outpatient surgical
programs at our hospitals, our network includes
12 freestanding outpatient surgery centers.
WOMEN’S SERVICES
Some 5,386 babies were welcomed last year
in one of our hospital delivery rooms, to the
delight of parents and staff. Three of our
hospitals offer obstetrical services to their
communities with Brandon Regional Hospital
offering Level III NICU, the highest level
available.
St. Petersburg General Hospital is a GYN
Robotic Epicenter, one of only two designated
in Florida to train surgeons on the latest
available robotic equipment. Oak Hill Hospital
and Medical Center of Trinity feature dedicated
women’s imaging centers.
Our commitment to women’s services, from
childbirth to digital mammography to minimally
invasive surgery and robotics is unsurpassed.
