About the Hospital
A Tradition of Quality
When it comes to choosing a hospital, one thing is clear: quality counts. Manatee Memorial Hospital has a long tradition of providing medical care in a comfortable and convenient environment each year for thousands of patients.
Manatee Memorial has served the Manatee County community for 60 years. The 319-bed acute care facility is owned and operated by a subsidiary of Universal Health Services, Inc., one of the largest and most highly respected hospital management companies in the country.
Patients have access to over 400 physicians* on staff, in addition to associates and consultants, with a broad range of specialties ranging from family medicine to vascular surgery.
The hospital’s highly skilled and motivated professionals include the nursing staff — one of its primary strengths — who are fully involved members of the patient care team. Some of the most medically advanced equipment is utilized by Manatee Memorial’s staff.
It is a center for healing. A place where caring is truly a way of life.
