Welcome to
Florida Hospital Waterman!

Florida Hospital Waterman was founded in 1938 as a legacy of Frank Waterman, president of the Waterman Fountain Pen Company. Today Florida Hospital Waterman is a 204-bed, state-of-the-art acute care hospital in Lake County, just north of Orlando in the community of Tavares. Serving the northern Lake County area for more than 65 years, Florida Hospital Waterman became a part of the Adventist Health System in 1992.

To better serve our community, the Florida Hospital Waterman Medical Plaza in Tavares was completed in 1997. That same location is now the new home of Florida Hospital Waterman.

lorida Hospital Waterman is accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (JCAHO). Formed in 1951, the JCAHO is dedicated to improving the quality of the nation’s health care through voluntary accreditation. Florida Hospital Waterman is focused on the challenging goal of continuously raising its quality standards to higher levels, and is proud of its JCAHO accreditation as evidence of an organization-wide commitment to provide quality care on an ongoing basis.
