“TGH is committed to providing our partners with
enhanced access to complex care and clinical trials that help
improve statewide patient outcomes,” said Dr. Abraham
Schwarzberg, executive vice president, chief of oncology, and
president of the Tampa General Provider Network (TGPN),
and vice president of clinical and translational research,
TGH-USF Health Joint Office of Clinical Research.
There are many reasons why TGH is becoming a center
of excellence. First, TGH led the way in studies and trials
for novel COVID-19 treatments. It also quickly adapted
to handle patient overflow from overwhelmed local and
regional hospitals, while continuing its normal operations.
Second, TGH is committed to providing care for underserved
individuals and communities. “We are both a dedicated
safety net hospital and a not-for-profit institution,” said Dr.
Schwarzberg. “TGH delivers care regardless of insurance or
socioeconomic background.”
This approach solidified TGH’s reputation for prioritizing
patient care over bottom lines. This resonates not only with
patients, but also with physicians’ groups on Florida’s East
Coast interested in joining TGH’s network. By increasing
the breadth and scope of its offerings, TGH has become
an academic-regional health system, caring for potentially
millions of patients while continuing to uphold the rigorous
standards of excellence required of a teaching hospital at the
forefront of medical research.
“TGH is really a hospital for the state of Florida,” said Dr.
Schwarzberg. “When you have complex, major changes in
health care like COVID created, TGH’s infrastructure, access
to clinical trials, and nimble approach enable us to care for
ongoing patient needs, plus provide subject matter expertise
coupled with cutting-edge treatment.”
