The Ohio-based clinic, one of the nation’s top hospitals and an international leader in clinical research and medical education will open the Cleveland Clinic Health & Wellness Center in early February at a temporary location in the Northbridge Center, 515 N. Flagler Drive, West Palm Beach, and will expand to a permanent location in early 2008.
The Center will initially be staffed by one to two internal medicine physicians and other specialists and will rotate the specialists as need demands. Specialists could include neurologists who are in short supply in Palm Beach County. Consultants and evalutions will be provided and transfer to the Clinic’s Weston medial campus, a 150-bed hospital, outpatient clinic and providing educational facilities. About 120 physicians with 35 specialties will be available for Palm Beachers from this Weston campus. Patient demand will drive which specialties are chosen for Palm Beach.
The Cleveland Clinic is the only institution in Borward County that offers post-graduate medical education in internal medicine, cardiology, colorectal surgery and others. Some of these specialists may do rotations at the West Palm Beach Center.
A $70-MM donation from Sydell Miller of Palm Beach and Cleveland, who credits the Cleveland Clinic with saving her life by diagnosis and surgery in 1992, has been a major spark plug in getting the Cleveland Clinic to the Palm Beaches.
