LRMC - the crossroads of innovation and tradition.

At Lakeland Regional Medical Center, we’re inspired by healthcare professionals who dedicate their lives to making others better. As one of the largest hospitals in the State of Florida with 851-beds, and the second busiest ER with over 130,000 patient visits annually, we are dedicated to providing the highest-quality healthcare available in Central Florida. As the sole level II facility serving Polk, Highlands and Hardee Counties, we have a stewardship to our community to provide services at the highest level.

Our hospital boasts cutting-edge facilities, a medical staff of nearly 500 physicians with an above 90-percent board-certification rate, leading technology, and a long-tenured physician-friendly executive team. Lakeland Regional Medical Center has been providing care to our community continuously for more than 80 years — a stable platform on which to build your practice — or career.    

Reputation. Innovation. Vision.

We are developing new strategies for the delivery of community-based care and continuing our commitment to delivering exceptional healthcare. We seek energetic, engaging professionals to apply their vision and ideas at the forefront of a vibrant medical environment. There are options within our community to appeal to a variety of professional directions. Whether you're seeking the condensed administration and paperwork duties of a hospital-employed practice, or are looking for the dynamic interaction of fellow colleagues within a multi-specialty group — we would like to share our community with you.

One community. One hospital. One career.

Our growing community is comfortably positioned in sunny Central Florida, halfway between Orlando and Tampa on I-4, the major East-West thoroughfare in the area. The community of Lakeland offers a hometown feel with affordable housing and excellent schools, as well as myriad of outdoor activities such as boating, fishing, and golfing, just to name a few. The Gulf Beaches and the Orlando attractions are less than an hour way!
