Jerry Capote, M.D., who most recently was a critical care physician, is passionate about making a difference for the medical staff and patients as the hospital’s chief medical officer.
“I’ve always felt there is nothing bigger than one person helping another one when they are vulnerable,” Dr. Capote said. “I got into healthcare administration because I want to take that idea and implement it on a grander scale.”
At the 204-bed hospital where he serves as CMO, Capote acts as a liaison between the administration and the medical staff and helps ensure that patients receive high-quality and individualized medical care.
“Leadership to me means you encourage others to take the actions they need to succeed,” Dr. Capote said.
Dr. Capote completed his bachelor’s degree in biological sciences from Florida State University and earned his medical degree from St. Matthew’s University School of Medicine in Grand Cayman.
