Memorable event supports innovation and exceptional urological care for community
August 7, 2025 – JUPITER, Fla. – On a beautiful late spring day, Jupiter Medical Center (JMC) supporters gathered at the OK Corral Gun Club for the inaugural Sporting Clays Classic to pull together in support of innovation and advancement of urological care. The benefit event was hosted by Jupiter Medical Center Foundation one year after the nonprofit announced a donation to spur the creation of the Barb and Joe Charles Center for Urology. Presented by The Bov Foundation, the memorable day of camaraderie and philanthropy was a great success, and plans are already underway for the 2026 event.
Funds from the event are earmarked to support the Barb and Joe Charles Center for Urology, which was established to expand access to an extremely in-demand medical specialty. Led by Urology Medical Director Patrick O. Tenbrink, MD, a board-certified urologist, the center is working to recruit a multidisciplinary team of highly specialized physicians, including a urologic oncologist, and acquire additional state-of-the-art technology.
During the event Jupiter Medical Center, CEO, Dr. Amit Rastogi shared how Jupiter Medical Center remains committed to advancing health care in the region by adopting the latest technologies and expanding access to high-quality services. In response to the growing need for specialized urological care, the hospital identified an opportunity to strengthen this area of expertise. Thanks to the support of Barb and Joe Charles, the foundation has been laid for a new chapter in urology at the medical center, with plans to further develop this specialty for the benefit of the community.
Jupiter Medical Center’s urology care team offers preventative, diagnostic, management, and surgical care for patients of all ages with various urological conditions, including incontinence, benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), pelvic floor dysfunction, kidney stones, undescended testis, interstitial cystitis and more. Earlier this year, JMC was the first in the region to offer the Nanoknife System, the first and only non-thermal, radiation-free, ablation treatment option for prostate cancer patients.
The inaugural Sporting Clays Classic served as both a celebration and a catalyst—marking a significant milestone in the establishment of the new urology center while also building momentum for continued innovation. The event drew generous support and enthusiasm from participants and sponsors alike, underscoring a shared commitment to advancing care in this important field.
Sporting Clays Classic Committee members included Glenn Anderson, Ryan Hobbie, Michael Pipkens, Tom Pledger Jr., and Matthew Wisehaupt.
Sponsors included The Bov Foundation, Black Diamond General Contracting, and Land Rover Palm Beach. Underwriters included Nancy and Phil Siegel in honor of JJW2H.org, Ferreira Construction, and the John Erbey Foundation. The Second Annual Sporting Clays Classic is scheduled for Friday, March 27, 2026, at the OK Corral Gun Club.
