Enhancing Access to World-Class Care in South Florida: Mount Sinai Medical Center Announces $15 Million Gift From Ken Griffin

With a focus on patient-centric care, the state-of-the-art Braman Comprehensive Cancer Center will increase access to clinical expertise, robust support services, research, trials, and the newest technologies. The five-story, 200,000-square-foot, ultramodern facility is designed to provide patients and families with a personalized, healing environment overlooking Biscayne Bay.

When it opens early next year, the center will offer a comprehensive hereditary cancer genetics program and dedicated genetics counselors, in addition to extensive research and clinical trial access.

“Mount Sinai Medical Center provides extraordinary care for our South Florida community,” said Ken. “I care deeply about ensuring that those fighting cancer receive the compassionate care they deserve, and I am proud to support the life-saving work of the transformative Braman Comprehensive Cancer Center.”

“The South Florida healthcare landscape continues to be transformed by Mr. Griffin’s extraordinary commitment to improving lives,” said Gino R. Santorio, President and CEO of Mount Sinai Medical Center. “His investment in Mount Sinai will help enhance the robust services and expertise offered at the Braman Comprehensive Cancer Center. We are proud that our Hialeah Emergency Center will bear Mr. Griffin’s name and serve as a lasting legacy to all he has done to improve and expand the effectiveness of health care in our community and beyond.”

Ken has long been committed to pushing the frontiers of science and medicine to drive progress and improve lives, including through gifts to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, the University of Miami’s Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the Baptist Health Foundation.
