An agreement was reached during Gov. Ron DeSantis’ trade mission to Italy for Tampa General to become the first health system in the Southeast to offer the world’s most precise robotic surgical technology.
“At Tampa General Hospital, we’ve invested in the latest technologies and recruited best-in-class providers to make Florida the destination for innovation in health care,” TGH President and CEO John Couris said.
