World-class healthcare architecture creates the foundation that builds long-term institutional value, attracts top clinical talent, and inspires landmark philanthropic investment.
Baptist Health recently announced a monumental $100 million gift from optometrist and philanthropist Dr. Herbert A. Wertheim. In recognition of this extraordinary generosity, the facility will be renamed the Baptist Health Herbert Wertheim Cancer Institute.
Designed by NELSON, this centerpiece of Baptist Health’s main campus integrates advanced clinical oncology, cutting-edge research, and an exceptional patient experience under one roof.
