I think Moffitt and Gainesville both have very good reputations and large teaching hospitals. Moffitt is said to be the third best Cancer Center in this Country after Sloan Kettering and M.D. Anderson in Houston. Gainesville is also held in esteem by many astute people. The Mayo Satellite is also regarded highly.

But it is my personal opinion that many parts of Florida still lack excellent medical facilities, but that too is changing. A rising tide (and savvy population) lifts all ships.

EDITED. MOFFIT IS NOT THE THIRD BEST CANCER CENTER. I was wrong.
