Tampa General Hospital to establish Dr. Jagadamba and Krishna Chivukula Men’s Center with $6.5 million gift from family

Tampa General Hospital has revealed plans for a new center focused on men’s health, thanks to a contribution from Dr. Jagadamba and Krishna Chivukula to the TGH Foundation.

The Dr. Jagadamba and Krishna Chivukula Men’s Health Center is being driven by the partnership between TGH and USF Health. The Dr. Jagadamba and Krishna Chivukula Men’s Health Center will provide primary and preventive care for male patients, similar to the care that USF’s Pamela Muma Women’s Health Center provides to female patients.

The Men’s Health Center will provide annual visits with providers, as well as access for urgent, acute and chronic health care needs.

Tampa General is currently scouting locations and developing plans for the new center. Construction on the Dr. Jagadamba and Krishna Chivukula Men’s Health Center is expected to begin in the next few months, with plans to open in 2025.
