Before becoming one of the world's foremost liver transplant surgeons, Dr. Dhanireddy "fell into transplantation as an intern" in medical school, following in the footsteps of his Indian immigrant physician father.
His journey reflects the passion, intellectual curiosity, and commitment that fuel the academic medicine partnership between Tampa General Hospital and the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine. Dr. Dhanireddy exemplifies the innovation and impact academic medicine makes possible—helping TGH become the nation's #1 transplant center by volume, where, as he proudly notes, "889 people's lives have been transformed" in just the past year alone. | | | | | | | | Tampa General Ranks Among Top 30% of Academic Medical Centers in Nation | | | |  | With more than 15,000 dedicated team members, Tampa General Hospital has been named one of America's Best Large Employers by Forbes for the second year in a row! TGH is the only health care system in the Tampa Bay region and one of just two health systems in Florida to receive this honor for 2025.
"We are proud to have Forbes recognize what our team at Tampa General has always known to be true, based on ongoing conversations with our team members, our exceptional engagement scores and retention rates, and our collective impact as an organization," said John Couris, our President & CEO. "To be our region's top large employer and one of the best in the nation is a testament to every team member who has taken our mission to heart, shared in our vision and helped co-create the future of our system."
