Who we are...
We're your friends, your family and your neighbors.
Open since 1916, Lee
Memorial Health System continues to
be an award-winning health care system with more than a million
patient contacts each year. Our success, however, begins with our
greatest assets...our employees.
Our staff is routinely
recognized for the compassionate and dedicated care they provide
to their patients. More than 9,300 employees and 4,500
volunteers and Auxilians are part of the Lee Memorial Health System family - the very heart of our
health system.
Our medical staff, which
totals nearly 1,130 Lee County physicians, is also a vital part
of our health system.
We're much more than just a
health system.
We're caring people caring for people.
