Florida Hospital of Zephyrhills,
formerly East Pasco Medical Center, chose Doster as Construction Manager
for this major expansion. The project consists of an Open Heart
addition, 4th Floor addition, ER expansion, Women’s Center renovation,
CVICU renovation, construction of a new catheterization lab, renovation
of the existing catheterization lab, an addition to the existing
outpatient lobby and admissions department, renovation of the
respiratory therapy department, and a new lobby for the Heart Institute.
Florida Hospital of Zephyrhills is part of the Adventist Health System.
Once the open heart surgery unit opens at Florida Hospital of
Zephyrhills, hospital officials expect to perform at least 300 open
heart surgeries and 500 angioplasties a year. The hospital received
state approval for the open heart surgery program in 2002, and design of
the project began. Doster performed preconstruction services to provide
budgeting for the project as the design of the project progressed.
This project was outstanding in that it started earlier than expected,
finished earlier than expected, and met all the Owner’s expectations. It
included multiple phases and major items of additional work that the
Owner directed us to complete. In addition, the project was the
Hospital’s largest and most comprehensive since the facility was
originally constructed.
