Joe Britner {David Volz}
Joe Britner is the new CEO of HCA Florida Woodmont Hospital in Tamarac.
His priority is to make it the hospital of choice in the community and to be a leader in Broward for safe and effective care.
At Woodmont, the new cardiac catheterization lab means people in Tamarac can now receive minimally invasive heart treatments. Alongside this, the hospital has added electrophysiology services, which expand access to specialized heart care in the community, according to Britner.
“When I first came to Woodmont, I listened to my team. My goal is to create a culture of excellence, and I want people in the community to choose our hospital,” said Britner.
On June 4, Woodmont welcomed the Tamarac North Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce for a breakfast meeting. Britner addressed local business and community leaders during the event.
He shared, “When I first started here, I asked my team, ‘Would this hospital be your first choice for a family member?’ If the answer is no, then we have a lot of work to do. My focus is on patient care,” he said.
During the past year, Woodmont had about 11,800 admissions, 41,000 emergency room visits, and 4,000 surgeries. The hospital employs about 800 people and is one of the largest businesses in Tamarac, according to Britner.
Britner’s background is in supply chain management. He began working at Woodmont in April, after previously serving as the chief operating officer (COO) at HCA Florida Kendall Hospital. From 2021 to 2023, he was COO at Woodmont.
