Florida Hospital for Children Profile
Since opening our doors in 1908, Florida Hospital has offered one of the most comprehensive children's health programs in Central Florida. Today, we continue this legacy of pediatric excellence at the Magnet recognized Walt Disney Pavilion at Florida Hospital for Children.
Our campus is home to 30 pediatric sub-specialties led by a team of 400 nurses and physicians. We provide specialized care in various state-of-the-art settings, including an 81-bed Neonatal Intensive Care Unit with private family-centered rooms, an Advanced Center for Pediatric Surgery handling nearly 4,000 cases each year, and one of the few pediatric oncology programs in the area. We're also Central Florida's only pediatric provider for bone marrow transplant, kidney transplant, Gamma Knife services, trilogy radiation and Level III epilepsy care. But perhaps most exciting of all, is that this is the first and only hospital to bear the Disney name.

Walt Disney Pavilion at Florida Hospital for Children provides dedicated pharmacy services to both inpatient and outpatient areas. We train our pharmacist and technician staff to specifically meet the pharmaceutical needs of this special population. Pediatric Residency trained pharmacists provide clinical services in all areas of the Children's Hospital. The department has established a PGY2 Pediatric Residency.
