About Us
Creating a New Standard in Care for Children and Adolescents.
With the completion of our major expansion project, the Walt Disney Pavilion at Florida Hospital for Children joins the ranks of premier children’s hospitals in the nation.
Here, your child can receive state-of-the-art care from some of the leading experts in pediatric medicine, including our 90 sub-specialists who work in close concert with one another and your doctor to ensure comprehensive, coordinated care every step of the way.
Within our walls we have created a very special place, one dedicated entirely to health, wellness and healing. Thanks to the brilliant Imagineers at the Walt Disney Company, your child will be welcomed to a magical land filled with familiar characters from some of Disney’s most beloved films.
Our goal is for children and families who visit us to feel at home. We know that a hospital can be a scary place for a young child. So we’ve gone out of our way to create a care center that is friendly and perhaps even a little fun.
But don’t think for a moment that we don’t take our job very seriously. Our doctors and specialists, as well as all our entire medical team, have some of the most advanced tools, technologies and therapies at their disposal, all designed to give your child the very best outcome possible. For more than a century now, we have built a legacy of excellence, service and commitment to top-quality pediatric health and healing – mind, body and spirit.
Our pediatric specialties include:
Emphasizing Health and Wellness
One of the cornerstones of our program is an emphasis on preventative health and wellness. Our team of specialists is focused on providing you and your child with the education, support and services you need to combat major pediatric health issues such as obesity and diabetes. To that end, we have assembled a highly respected team of pediatric weight management and diabetes experts who work together to develop comprehensive programs that can put your child on the road to a lifetime of health, including our highly popular Healthy100 Kids Program, which provides families with the proven tools they need to live a healthy, active life.
Coordinated Care at Every Turn
One of the hallmarks of our special brand of health care is our Children’s Care Coordinator. Acting as a clinical concierge, our Coordinator handles all your scheduling for appointments, consultations and procedures; provides information about diseases and clinical trials; and assists with any other needs you or your child may have during your time at the hospital. These one-on-one sessions are entirely confidential, and no referral is needed to speak with our Children’s Care Coordinator. Care Coordinator services are complimentary and are accessible by calling (407) 303-KIDS (5437).
