The Martin Health Physician Group Pediatric Care network (Martin Pediatric Care), which includes the Jensen Beach, Port St. Lucie and Stuart locations, has received the Certificate of Recognition for nine consecutive years. In 2013, Cleveland Clinic Martin Health was also the first hospital in the Treasure Coast market to be honored for its Patient-Centered Medical Home practices.
Martin Pediatric Care continues to receive recognition for its caregivers and hospital personnel’s commitment to quality, efficiency, accessibility and communication, resulting in a trusting and positive experience for patients and their families.
