AdventHealth East Orlando

History

In 1941, Orlando Osteopathic Hospital was founded in a house with fifteen beds. On October 1, 1961, the medical facility opened at a new location as Orlando General Hospital. In 1990, Adventist Health System Sunbelt Healthcare Corporation purchased Orlando General Hospital.

In early June 2012, Florida Hospital East Orlando announced that it would double the size of its emergency department, by increasing the number of beds from twenty-five to sixty-five for $34 million. On April 22, 2013, the hospital had a groundbreaking for its emergency department. On September 10, 2015, Florida Hospital East Orlando opened a pediatric emergency department. On January 2, 2019, Florida Hospital East Orlando rebranded to AdventHealth East Orlando.

On January 1, 2021, all hospitals were required to have their chargemaster on its website by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. In early February 2023, almost all of the AdventHealth hospitals had their chargemaster on their website, including AdventHealth East Orlando. In early July 2023, AdventHealth filed with Orange County to expand the emergency department and replace the parking lot with a parking garage. In 2023, the AdventHealth East Orlando ER was the busiest in the city. On April 2, 2025, AdventHealth filed with Orange County to add a four-story tower on the hospital's south side and a 1,100-square-foot surgery on the north side.
