Baptist Medical Center Beaches
Having access to high-quality health care is an important consideration when choosing where to live. In this episode, we highlight Baptist Medical Center Beaches, a full-service hospital just minutes from Ponte Vedra Beach and the Jacksonville beaches community.
World-Class Care Close to Home
In Northeast Florida, living near the coast doesn’t mean sacrificing access to top-tier medical care. Located just minutes from communities like Atlantic Beach, Jacksonville Beach, and Ponte Vedra, Baptist Medical Center Beaches offers a wide range of health services in a convenient, community-focused setting. In this episode of Discover Ponte Vedra, Lisa Barton speaks with Jarrett Dreicer, incoming president of the hospital, about what makes this facility such a valuable asset to local residents.
Comprehensive Services in a Community Setting
With 146 beds and a full spectrum of services, from labor and delivery to critical care, Baptist Beaches offers big-hospital capabilities with a personal, local touch. Residents have access to specialized care in cardiology, neurology, surgery, and more. It’s a rare combination of convenience and excellence that makes the hospital stand out.
Labor and Delivery With a Personal Touch
Baptist Beaches delivers more than 1,000 babies each year, supported by a skilled team of nurses and physicians. The hospital features 16 spacious maternity suites designed to provide a calm, comfortable environment for both mothers and families.
Senior Care That Goes Beyond the Hospital
The hospital also offers elder care services, including an on-campus AgeWell Center that provides comprehensive care for older adults. This clinic addresses health concerns often not covered by standard primary care, offering a proactive, specialized approach to aging well.
Emergency and Surgical Advancements
The 24-hour emergency room has recently undergone significant renovations, including the addition of private entrances for each major service area. A major $32 million expansion also added state-of-the-art surgical suites, including advanced tools like the Da Vinci robotic system, enabling the hospital to perform complex procedures close to home.
National Recognition for Quality and Outcomes
Baptist Beaches has been ranked among the Top 10 hospitals in Florida by U.S. News & World Report for three years running. These rankings are based on patient outcomes and quality of care, not advertising or sponsored placements. The hospital takes pride in providing both expert medical treatment and a compassionate, personal patient experience.
