The Old Church in Palm Beach Serves as Setting for Intimate Jupiter Medical Center Reception

JMC supporters gathered to hear from President and CEO about latest in health care

JUPITER, Fla. – December 6, 2024 – On Thursday, Nov. 14, as the sun set on the Intracoastal Waterway, Jupiter Medical Center supporters gathered for an intimate reception hosted by Mimi and Leroy McMakin at their residence, The Old Church in Palm Beach. The picturesque backdrop served as the setting for a discussion about Jupiter Medical Center’s latest updates, including how the area’s only independent, not-for-profit hospital continues to lead the region in safety, quality, and patient experience rankings.

"It is a privilege to be with you tonight,” said Traci Simonsen, Chief Philanthropy Officer of the Jupiter Medical Center Foundation, while welcoming the crowd. “We are truly grateful for the opportunity to connect with you and share our latest updates and achievements, which continue to elevate Jupiter Medical Center and benefit our region.”

She then introduced Amit Rastogi, MD, MHCM, who detailed the hospital’s latest updates, including its growth over the past 45 years, current growth plans, and how it is advancing health care in the region using the latest technology and treatments.

“Our growth is driven by the demand to provide the highest level of health care in our region,” said Dr. Rastogi. “Three things are fundamental for us at Jupiter Medical Center: providing the best quality, safety, and patient experience. We attribute our success in these areas to our status as the area’s only independent, not-for-profit health system, which allows us to focus all our efforts on our community and its needs.”

The following day, Jupiter Medical Center announced it was the only hospital in the Palm Beach and Martin County region to receive an “A” Hospital Safety Grade, the highest safety grade from The Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit watchdog focused on patient safety. This ranking marks the hospital’s 12th “A” from The Leapfrog Group.

Also joining the discussion were several of the hospital’s esteemed physicians:

  • Julian Berrocal, MD, Yale-educated, board-certified and fellowship-trained breast surgical oncologist, discussed the latest breast cancer treatments available at the Margaret W. Niedland Breast Center.
  • Michael Sabbah, MD, board-certified and fellowship-trained in cardiovascular medicine at the Mayo Clinic, discussed the Robson Heart & Vascular Institute’s multidisciplinary approach to heart care.
  • Jessica Schwartz, DO, a board-certified general internist with a special focus on obesity medicine, detailed the importance of primary care for overall health and wellness.
