Director's Description

Orlando Health is a healthcare system with 18 hospitals in the Central Florida. The downtown campus is home to the Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children and Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women & Babies as well as the adult facility, Orlando Regional Medical Center, where most of our admitted patients stay. Providers on the medical staff are credentialed for these facilities, improving accessibility to all types of subspecialists. Our obstetrical service, including high risk and maternal fetal medicine services, is one of the busiest in the nation. We have top notch hepatology consultative services as well. We have the only dedicated clinic with ACHD boarded cardiologists in the Orlando area. With the capacity to care for any ACHD-related problems, related to the heart or otherwise, Orlando Health provides the highest quality care for adult congenital cardiology patients in the area.
