UHealth and construction firm Robins & Morton marked the opening of UHealth Doral with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on November 21. The six-story, 160,000-square-foot medical center at 8375 NW 53rd Terrace is part of the larger Downtown Doral mixed-use community in Miami-Dade County.
The facility includes 33 exam rooms, eight operating rooms, three endoscopy suites, 33 cancer treatment units, comprehensive radiology services, a lab, an onsite pharmacy, a seven-story parking garage, and a central energy plant to support operations. Specialty services offered at UHealth Doral include care from the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, the Desai Sethi Urology Institute, and UHealth’s neurology program, among other specialty service lines.
“The biggest advantage for patients in Doral is that they now have local access in their community to the providers and services that adhere to the mission of UHealth’s academic medicine practices,” said David Kerman, M.D., chief medical director for UHealth Doral. “Our physicians are providing cutting-edge care and leading technology compassionately to the people living in the Doral community.”
Robins & Morton served as the project’s general contractor, with Arcadis as the architect.
“We’re incredibly excited to celebrate the completion of UHealth Doral,” said Johnathan Peavy, operations manager at Robins & Morton. “This facility will have a lasting, positive impact on our community for decades to come, bringing transformative care to Doral.”
The newly completed facility aims to enhance healthcare access for the Doral community, providing a wide range of specialized services within a state-of-the-art environment.

Wow… And we wonder why healthcare is so expensive. I suggest everyone watch the movie Bullet this weekend to see what a modern hospital looked like in 1970… LOL
In South Florida it is a race between Baptist Health (nothing to do with religion) and UM Health. Both are building incredible new facilities with the most modern treatments and care. Interesting in South Florida the newer/ Nicest facilities get a good amount of patients from Bahamas, central and South America. Kendal Baptist has a full-service Hilton hotel on the property.
Incredible
