Medical transportation in Tampa Bay, Florida

Moffitt Cancer Center Transportation

Moffitt is a national destination for cancer care — patients travel from across the country for treatment. Crown Care provides:

  • Airport pickup at TPA for inbound cancer patients
  • Hotel-to-Moffitt daily treatment rides
  • Recurring chemotherapy and radiation transportation
  • Long-distance transport from other Florida cities and out of state
  • Wheelchair and stretcher transport for patients with mobility limitations

Bridges and Traffic

Tampa Bay's geography means bridges — the Howard Frankland, Gandy Bridge, and Courtney Campbell Causeway connect Tampa and St. Petersburg across the bay. These bridges create bottlenecks during rush hour. Crown Care drivers plan routes around bridge congestion and ensure on-time arrivals regardless of traffic conditions.

Retirement Community Transport

The Tampa Bay area attracts a large retirement population. Communities in Sun City Center, The Villages (north of the metro), and beach communities along the Gulf Coast generate consistent demand for recurring medical transportation. Crown Care sets up standing schedules for dialysis, cardiology, oncology, and routine care appointments.
