HCA Florida Palms West Hospital recently held a “board breaking ceremony” to celebrate the beginning of its $22-million expansion of the surgical services department. This transformation will add two new operating rooms (ORs), including a vascular hybrid room, right-size two current ORs, build out the ambulatory services unit and lay the foundation for future OR growth. Palms West Hospital offers a wide array of surgical services, including vascular, spine, gynecology, general surgery, oncology, bariatric and orthopedics, and is the first hospital in the county to be named a Center of Excellence in Robotic Surgery.
