“Baptist Hospital is one of the main reasons we chose Miami as our new home. When we moved here four years ago and relocated our family and business, knowing there was a world-class hospital like Baptist was a key reason. The hospital’s wide range of medical services, coupled with Centers of Excellence like Miami Cancer Institute, made it an obvious choice for us. Baptist has an unrivaled reputation in South Florida, with world-class doctors and staff, and we are proud to be associated with it and support it through philanthropy.”

“In 2019, my life changed when I suffered a stroke. The only person I thought about calling was Bernie Fernandez, M.D. – whom we contacted after calling 911. He guided us to Baptist Hospital and had the emergency staff ready for me when I arrived. Felipe De Los Rios, M.D., was on call and took care of me as if I were family and expressed that I was going to be fine after a few days in the hospital. The doctors and staff at Baptist Health are some of the best that I have ever seen, and my partner and I are honored to give back through philanthropy to ensure the rest of our community receives the best healthcare.”

“Philanthropy is instrumental for a great community. My family has a strong connection to healthcare organizations, specifically Baptist Health South Florida’s Bethesda Hospital, due to the highquality care that patients receive. Being able to make a difference through philanthropy is personally rewarding to me and my family. Quality and accessible healthcare is important, no matter your age, income, emergency situation or a routine screening. Baptist Health South Florida allows me to carry on the legacy of my father, a former Board Chairman, and support the overall health of our community.” 8 BAPTIST HEALTH FOUNDATION 2021
