Griffin Concierge Medical is opening in the Sarasota–Bradenton corridor in Fall 2026, led by Dr. Cheryl Johnstone.

IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Country Club East is Lakewood Ranch's premier gated address — a community of estate-range single-family homes wrapped around championship golf corridors, with mature tree canopy, low traffic, and the kind of neighbor tenure that defines a genuinely established community. Residents here have typically been in the master plan long enough to have watched everything else develop around them, and chosen Country Club East because it has remained the most curated address within the gates.
Griffin Concierge Medical is opening in the Sarasota–Bradenton corridor in Fall 2026, led by Dr. Cheryl Johnstone. For Country Club East residents, that means a concierge physician relationship within Lakewood Ranch — no bridge, no mainland drive. The same model that has defined Tampa Bay medicine since 2008, brought to the community you already live in.
Country Club East residents chose their address as a statement of quality, and they hold that standard across every professional relationship. The Griffin model was built for exactly this profile: one physician who knows you across years, a dedicated Patient Care Coordinator, and 24/7 direct physician access when needed. The arrival of Griffin Lakewood Ranch in Fall 2026 means that the healthcare relationship finally matches the standard of the address.
If you live in Country Club East and want to be among the first members at Griffin Lakewood Ranch when we open in Fall 2026, we are accepting inquiries now.
