"Because we are a nonprofit healthcare system, we are responsive to the needs of our region," said Andrew Starr, Vice President and Chief Health Operations Officer, who will oversee TMH's operations in Panama City Beach. "One of the things we've heard loud and clear is that there is a great need for healthcare in this area. We are happy to be open, and we are ready to bring high quality, locally governed care to the community."
An ambulatory surgery center and cardiology services are anticipated to be operational in the medical office building this fall. Future plans include a 100-bed hospital with an emergency center and other inpatient services including surgery, cardiology procedures and imaging, anticipated to be complete in 2027.
"The economic growth and vitality of Northwest Florida is affected by a variety of factors, one of those being the health and well-being of our residents and visitors," said Jorge Gonzalez, CEO of St. Joe. "While meeting a critical need for more healthcare options, our collaboration with TMH and FSU has the potential to create dynamic synergies between research, education and clinical delivery that we are confident will have a positive and powerful impact on the entire region."

John Woltz and Laura Yauch, will now see patients in the new medical office building in suite 102 and is accepting new patients.
