Tampa General Hospital (TGH) celebrated more than $120 million in charitable contributions over a two-year period to advance its vision to transform healthcare through innovation. The latest gift toward the $120 million milestone came from the Taneja Family Foundation and is the largest in the foundation’s history. 

As part of the celebration, Tampa General leadership, community leaders and members of the Taneja family broke ground on the Taneja Surgical, Neuroscience & Transplant Tower, a medical pavilion in the heart of Tampa Bay, where patients will have access to best-in-class providers, the latest research therapies and state-of-the-art technologies. The tower bears the Taneja name in honor of the Taneja Family Foundation’s contribution to the TGH Foundation. 

Construction on the Taneja Surgical, Neuroscience & Transplant Tower is expected to be completed in 2027, which will then serve as home for Tampa General’s surgery, neuroscience and transplant service lines. The tower, which consists of a plaza level and 12 floors, will provide 144 patient beds, 32 operating suites and expanded intensive care unit (ICU) capacity. In addition, there will be space for education and training, emergency response and sterile processing, and two floors reserved for future growth.
