MDFR Lt. and Combat Medic Arthur Rodriguez was enjoying a family vacation in Fort Myers when a serious ATV accident changed everything.

Rodriguez was riding in the woods when the crash occurred. He was airlifted to a local hospital and later transferred to HCA Florida Kendall Hospital for advanced trauma care. Several of his ribs were broken, and his lungs were collapsing.

When he arrived at Kendall, the trauma team was ready.

“From the moment I arrived at Kendall Hospital, I knew I was going to make it out alive,” Rodriguez said. “The medical staff at Kendall Trauma has been nothing less than exceptional. Starting with the CEO, doctors, nursing, techs, respiratory, they are all top-notch.”

Thanks to the coordinated efforts of the trauma team, Rodriguez is now on the road to recovery — grateful for the care that helped save his life.

On this , we are sharing a story that reflects the heart of why we do what we do.

Arianna is recovering in HCA Florida Kendall Hospital's Trauma and Burn Intensive Care Unit after suffering third-degree burns over 34% of her body. As she focused on healing, she shared a simple wish with her care team: she wanted to marry her fiancé, Elvin.

Her nurses and hospital staff came together to make that wish a reality, organizing a beautiful ceremony in the hospital chapel so the couple could celebrate their wedding surrounded by loved ones.

Elvin expressed deep gratitude that Arianna was just seven minutes away from HCA Florida Kendall Hospital when she was injured. He praised the compassionate care provided by the nursing team and the dedication of Dr. Jonathan Freedman, who kept him informed throughout her treatment and remained focused on achieving the best possible outcome for Arianna. Dr. Freedman also took time to attend the ceremony, standing alongside the couple as they began this new chapter.

This is what Care Like Family means — being present not only for the healing process, but also for life’s most meaningful moments.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Arianna’s story is a reminder that love and hope can show up even in the hardest moments. 💙

Arianna, 34, is recovering in HCA Florida Kendall Hospital's Trauma/Burn Intensive Care Unit after suffering third-degree burns to over 34% of her body in a BBQ accident. While in the hospital, she and her fiancé, Elvin, decided they didn’t want to wait any longer to get married.

Our teams coordinated a wedding in the hospital chapel with her care team close by, and her mom and mother-in-law by her side. With no officiant available, our COO, Joe Britner, stepped in to officiate.

“As a hospital family, we are honored to support our patients not only in their healing, but in life’s most meaningful moments,” said Britner. “Today was a beautiful reminder of resilience, love, and the compassion of our care teams.”

During Burn Awareness Week, we share the story of brave 9-year-old Santiago.

On January 1st, around noon, Santiago was playing with a sparkler when his shirt caught fire. He sustained second- and third-degree burns to 18% of his body and was treated in our Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. After one month of care, Santiago was discharged earlier this week. The first thing he wanted to do was play with his dog Bruno, whom he hadn’t seen in nearly a month.

Santiago’s mother, Monica, shared, “After a month of care, I am so thankful for the entire team. They explained everything to me and truly cared about Santiago’s recovery.”

At HCA Florida Kendall Hospital, we understand that children need specialized, compassionate care-especially during frightening moments. Our pediatric team goes the extra mile to provide comfort, clear communication, and family-centered care, keeping parents closely involved every step of the way.

As we kick-off , we’re sharing a powerful reminder that expert cardiovascular care can save lives.

While on a cruise, David Williams experienced sudden, severe chest pain after dinner. Cruise medical staff quickly recognized the seriousness of the situation, noting dangerously high blood pressure and signs of a potentially life-threatening condition. He was urgently evacuated by air ambulance after the ship docked in Cozumel and transported directly to HCA Florida Kendall Hospital.

Upon arrival, he was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, stabilized, and later underwent emergency surgery. The procedure marked a major milestone for our team as it was the first complex thoracic aortic repair using a branched endograft at HCA Florida Kendall Hospital, performed by Dr. Brandon Diaz alongside Dr. Louis Santiesteban.

Now recovering well, David said; “First and foremost, I give all the glory to the Lord. He guided every step and placed the right people in my path. God worked through Dr. Diaz and the entire medical team to save my life. From the moment I arrived, I knew I was in the right hands. Dr. Diaz was calm, confident, and completely in control. When someone looks at you and says, ‘I’ve got you,’ and truly means it, that changes everything. He saved my life.”

At just 33 years old, George Bishop’s life changed in a moment. What started as a sudden, severe headache turned into a life-threatening stroke that nearly took him from his family.

His daughter’s quick thinking and a 911 call set in motion a chain of care that would save his life. As George’s condition deteriorated rapidly, medical teams stepped in — stabilizing him, placing him on life support and fighting through complications like infection and pneumonia.

Days turned to uncertainty but hope never left the room. Against all odds, George began to wake up — confused, but alive. Thanks to the coordinated efforts of physicians, nurses and specialists focused on advanced stroke and critical care, he was given a second chance.

Today, George is back to doing what he loves — working, living and cherishing every moment with his family.
