Jackson South Community Hospital. The gift also includes future naming rights for the top floor at
Jackson West, a new hospital campus planned for the City of Doral.
"The partnership between Jackson Health System and Leon Medical Centers is bringing two of Miami-Dade County's most respected and beloved medical institutions even closer together," said
Carlos A. Migoya, president and CEO of Jackson Health System.
Jackson South recently completed a modernization projection of the hospital's fourth floor. The floor has 24 private rooms, and it features dialysis service, telemetry, and a dedicated physician dictation area, as well as a comfortable family lounge outfitted with modern amenities, such as charging stations and work space.
"This year we celebrate our 20-year anniversary of providing medical care to patients in Miami-Dade and it is because of partners like Jackson Health System that we have been able to practice medical excellence at the level I envisioned when I started Leon Medical Centers 20 years ago," said
Benjamín León, Jr., founder of Leon Medical Centers.
