Tampa General Hospital continues its expansion into Pasco County with the opening of the
Tampa General Medical Group Family Care Center in Wesley Chapel.
The medical facility opens Jan. 7 at 2324 Oak Myrtle Lane, on the north side of State Road 56, off Cypress Creek Boulevard. Operating hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday - Friday. This is TGH's 13th Family Care Center and the second in Pasco County.
"We're trying to find our sites where growth is high," says Jana Gardner, VP of physicians practices operations. "The area is growing like a weed, kind of like Brandon."
The interchange of I-75 and S.R.56 is a booming area for new development in the Wesley Chapel area including the planned master-community of
Cypress Creek Town Center, Tampa Premium Outlets mall and the Cypress Creek Ice & Sports Complex.
Tampa General opened a family care center, for patients age 18 and older, in the Trinity area of Pasco in October.
The Wesley Chapel facility has two doctors, Stephanie Talton-Williamson and Cheryl Roberson. They will offer health care to patients age 12 and older. Services include physicals, immunizations, illness visits and management of chronic health conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure.
Talton-Williamson is board certified in internal medicine. She completed her residency and earned a medical degree from Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans. Roberson is board certified in family medicine. She completed her residency a the Via Christi Hospital St. Francis in Wichita, Kansas. Her medical degree is from the University of Kansas in Kansas City.
The family care center also is the address for
Tower Radiology Center which will be a convenience for physicians and patients, says Gardner.
TGH officials plan to open a 14th Family Care Center in Fishhawk community in LIthia in late January.
