"We are excited to team up with BankAtlantic and pleased that this on-site clinic in Florida has opened," said Craig Bloom, Regional Director, Strategic Operations, Tenet Healthcare. "The new clinic allows BankAtlantic to offer its employees a quality healthcare solution that is effective, efficient and part of a growing trend that, we believe, could benefit many other corporations."

The clinic officially opened on Feb. 25. Dr. Anthony Maher, board-certified family physician with Tenet Florida Physician Services and a member of the medical staff at North Shore Medical Center – FMC Campus in Lauderdale Lakes, is caring for patients. Dr. Maher's focus is in general wellness, screening and preventative medicine. Services offered at the clinic include immunizations, physicals and consultations. Dr. Maher also works with patients who suffer from chronic health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and asthma.

The clinic is designed like a traditional doctor's office and includes a waiting room, physician's office, nurse's station and two exam rooms. The clinic accepts most insurance plans, but serves BankAtlantic employees only.

"The health and wellness of our employees is very important to our company, and with Tenet's help, we were able to open our On-Site Clinic. We are thrilled to continue our relationship with Tenet in the community and at our corporate office," said Jarett S. Levan, President and CEO of BankAtlantic.
