The Johns Hopkins All Childrenโs Hospital under construction in Wesley Chapel isnโt expected to open until late 2027, but that doesnโt mean the pediatric clinical and academic health system isnโt making news in our area.
Not only does Johns Hopkins All Childrenโs already have a specialty clinic open off Wesley Chapel Blvd., it also celebrated the opening of its first-ever pediatric urgent care facility in Tampa (which is located at 12220 Bruce B. Downs Blvd., Suite B, near USF) on Oct. 17, with a North Tampa Bay Chamber (NTBC) ribbon-cutting event that included tours of the after-hours (itโs open 5 p.m.-midnight on weekdays and 11:30 a.m.-midnight on weekends) and pediatric (under age 21)-only urgent care facility.
The tours were led by Susan Byrd, RN, the executive director of ambulatory services, Dr. Joseph Perno, the VP of medical affairs, and Chrissie Ladd, PA (in floral dress in top photo), for Johns Hopkins All Childrenโs Hospital. The NTBC ribbon was cut by the urgent care facilityโs first patient Shanella Fisher (with scissors in photo below).ย
And, the Johns Hopkins All Childrenโs OB/ GYN Specialists Office located at 19707 Aprile Dr., Land OโLakes, was set to host another NTBC ribbon-cutting event on Nov. 18,
