When a rare and life-threatening complication called an amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) struck during childbirth, Kamren's survival depended on the rapid response and advanced expertise of her care team at Tampa General Hospital.
Backed by the resources of the region's only academic health system, collaboration and innovation were key in saving her life. Our TGH Women’s Institute cares for the most complex of cases across the region and state, delivering hope when it's needed most. 💙

This , we’re honored to share Eddie Garcia's journey. After 20 years in the U.S. Army, he faced a new battle: Meniere's disease that brought constant ringing, dizziness, and pressure that made everyday life a struggle.
At Tampa General Hospital, specialized academic care helped him regain stability and strength. And through our partnership with Home Base, offering support for veterans at no cost, Eddie found community, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose. Today, he's giving back by mentoring others and showing what courage looks like long after service. 🇺🇸

Leaders from all across Tampa General Hospital came together for our November Leadership Forum last week, a day dedicated to strengthening relationships, collaboration, and trust throughout our academic health system.
Guided by the AKTiVe leadership model, the conversation centered on building a culture that will outlast us all—one grounded in respect, connection, inclusion, and safety. Special guest Thomas Lee, MD, author of "Social Capital in Healthcare," joined us to discuss how meaningful relationships and social capital amplify patient experience and team engagement. The Press Ganey team expanded on these themes before our executive Q&A, which highlighted how trust between patients and team members goes hand-in-hand with excellence in care.
