Sarasota Memorial Health Care System has welcomed a veteran Internal Medicine specialist to the health system’s First Physicians Group (FPG) network and community this month.  With more than 30 years experience, Jeffrey Humbarger, MD, joined the FPG Internal Medicine practice, providing a full spectrum of adult and geriatric care. He joins Drs. Lalita Bhamidipati, Joseph Ferrari, Elizabeth Jungst, Sherri Sanders and Maria Velasco-Ferrari in FPG’s Internal Medicine practice. Humbarger relocated to Sarasota from Boca Grande, where he spent the past six years as physician and three years as medical director of the Boca Grande Health Clinic. From 1996-2011, he served as consultant in Executive and International Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, FL. In addition to his practice, he serves as a preceptor for students in the University of South Florida’s nurse practitioner program. His research and clinical focus includes fractures and rehabilitation in the elderly, early diagnosis of cardiac disease and environmental risks associated with the Zika virus, red tide and other marine-related illnesses and injuries.
