Upon completion, Orlando Health Lake Mary Hospital will be connected to Orlando Health Emergency Room – Lake Mary. The latter opened in 2019 with 25 treatment rooms, imaging department and outpatient pharmacy among others.

City of Lake Mary Mayor David Mealor said: “It is so exciting to see the growth of this medical campus and everything Orlando Health continues to do to bring advanced healthcare options to Lake Mary.

“We’re thrilled to have them as an economic development partner for our community and in improving the quality of life for our residents.”
