Cleveland Clinic Florida, a leading hospital in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale area, has named Shenika Nesbitt as its representative in The Bahamas.
She will be representing Cleveland Clinic’s Global Patient Services (GPS) division, and will be the point of contact for Bahamians interested in accessing the hospital system’s specialised medical services in both Florida and Ohio.
Based in The Bahamas, Ms Nesbitt will also be responsible for maintaining and developing relationships with referral networks and identifying business development opportunities.
“We are very pleased to announce that after decades of serving the Bahamian community with a full range of health care services, Cleveland Clinic Florida will provide another level of comfort with the addition of a trusted Bahamian professional, Shenika Nesbitt, as our global patient services representative in The Bahamas,” said Rodolfo J Blandon, president of Cleveland Clinic Florida.
“For a Bahamian citizen or resident seeking medical services abroad, it helps to be able to count on a trusted, familiar face who can take care of all of the arrangements, giving them the peace of mind they need so they can focus on getting better.”
Ms Nesbitt will also extend Cleveland Clinic’s reach to the medical community by providing continuing education opportunities and training to health professionals.
“If I can make a patient’s medical journey smoother, and relieve that individual and his or her family of some of the stress at a time when focus must be on wellness, I will be doing the work I was born to do,” said Ms Nesbitt. “I am very excited about the next chapter of helping fellow Bahamians who are able to receive world-class care at an amazing facility like Cleveland Clinic Florida.”

The writing is on the wall for all of those young and unqualified UWI educated doctors in The Bahamas who, for whatever reason, cannot gain entry into the U.S. or Canada to live and practice. Same goes for the nurses.
