Baptist Medical Center

Baptist Medical Center is the downtown-river hospital campus at 800 Prudential Drive, Jacksonville, FL 32207, on the Southbank of the St. Johns River. Google Places lists the phone as (904) 202-2000. This Stay Safe Jax page is Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville on Prudential Drive. It is not Baptist Medical Center South on Old St. Augustine Road, and it is not a San Marco clinic. The public hospital sits on the Southbank in the 32207 zip code, across the river from downtown Jacksonville. Public ratings on this page are stored snapshots, not live scores. Google Places currently lists Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville at 4.4 from 2,397 reviews for the 800 Prudential Drive campus, the same place ID stored here and the same match title: Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville. Stay Safe Jax has no stored Yelp rating for this hospital, so the headline is the Google snapshot. Those numbers do not refresh when someone opens the page. On August 7, 2026, The Florida Times-Union reported U.S. News & World Report hospital rankings that placed Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville first in Florida and Baptist Medical Center tenth in Florida. The same story said Baptist was high performing in 17 procedures and nationally ranked in two children’s specialties. That is clinical ranking coverage, not a consumer-review score. The Google snapshot and the U.S. News placement can both be true at once. Stay Safe Jax does not treat a ranking story as a lawsuit, a license number, or a safety warning. The Jacksonville Daily Record reported on September 2, 2026 that Baptist Health received a $3.79 million building permit for a Central Services Center at San Marco East Plaza, 3563 Philips Highway. The paper said Baptist Health bought that property on December 15, 2025 for $38 million. Hoodline summarized the same project as a back-office hub in a former San Marco mall. Both outlets describe back-of-house space, not a public hospital. Do not treat 3563 Philips Highway as the Prudential Drive campus. The Better Business Bureau lists a parent profile for Baptist Medical Center and, as of this review, shows the parent file as not accredited. A BBB parent listing is not a hospital quality grade and not a court finding. Stay Safe Jax does not invent licenses, investigations, or official-website links for this campus. Google Places lists wheelchair-accessible parking, entrance, and restroom for the Prudential Drive hospital. Stay Safe Jax did not independently inspect the buildings. If you need a specific accommodation, call the hospital. Stay Safe Jax leaves warning flags at 0. Baptist Medical Center on the Southbank is a large Jacksonville hospital with a solid Google snapshot, recent Times-Union ranking coverage, and a separate Philips Highway support project that is not the public hospital.
