Florida’s Orlando Health Expands Pediatric Physician Network

Orlando Health, a system of community and specialty hospitals in Central Florida, is adding to its network of pediatric specialty clinics in a move that it says will enhance services to patients close to their homes but also may potentially drive admissions to its children’s hospital downtown, according to a report in the Orlando Business Journal.

The system is adding a new 3,000-square-foot pediatric specialist clinic in Waterford Lakes, Fla., in July, the second clinic to open this year in its network of Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children clinics, and the fourth site overall. Orlando Health also plans to open clinics in Osceola County, Lake Nona, Volusia County and Lakeland, according to the report.

The clinics’ physicians are employed by Orlando Health and also work at the 158-bed Arnold Palmer Hospital. The clinics provide craniomaxillofacial surgery, gastroenterology, oncology, neurosurgery, neuropsychology, orthopedics, pediatric surgery and rheumatology services.
