Visit the Lakewood Ranch office →WHAT CONCIERGE MEANS HERE
Griffin Concierge Medical is opening in the Sarasota–Bradenton corridor in Fall 2026, led by Dr. Cheryl Johnstone. For residents of Country Club at Lakewood Ranch, Griffin will bring the same concierge model that has defined Tampa Bay medicine since 2008: deep relationships, full infrastructure, and 24/7 access to a real physician — without the drive across the bridge.
IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
The Country Club at Lakewood Ranch is the original — the community that established the master plan's identity before the rest of the neighborhoods existed. Fifty-four holes of championship golf, mature landscaping, and the generational continuity of a community that has been here long enough to have its own institutional memory. Residents who have been here since the beginning have watched the master plan build out around them and chosen, repeatedly, to stay where the standard was set.
Griffin Concierge Medical is opening in the Sarasota–Bradenton corridor in Fall 2026, led by Dr. Cheryl Johnstone. For Country Club residents, the opening means a concierge physician within the master plan — the same board-certified, deep-relationship model that Griffin has practiced in Tampa Bay since 2008, now available without the drive to St. Pete or Tampa.
The residents of Country Club at Lakewood Ranch are people who have invested in quality consistently — in their home, in the community they chose, and in the professional relationships that support their life here. Healthcare has been the gap. Griffin Lakewood Ranch is the corrective: one physician, one relationship, 24/7 access, and a care model designed for people who have earned the right to demand more from their primary care.
We are accepting pre-opening inquiries now for the Fall 2026 launch. If you live in Country Club at Lakewood Ranch and you want to be among the first members when Dr. Johnstone opens her practice, inquire online or call our existing offices at (727) 516-7272.

We are accepting pre-opening inquiries for the Fall 2026 launch. Dr. Cheryl Johnstone will be accepting new patients from Country Club and the broader Lakewood Ranch master plan.

The difference is fundamental. Griffin members have one physician who knows their full history, a dedicated Patient Care Coordinator, 24/7 direct physician access, and same-day appointments. Standard primary care in the Lakewood Ranch corridor offers none of these consistently.
