Double board certified: Pediatrics and Internal Medicine (FAAP, DABIM)

USF Health Clinician of the Year

Tampa, FL · All Ages

Dr. Meriwether is double board certified — Pediatrics and Internal Medicine — a rare combination that lets him care for entire families, from newborns to grandparents, with fewer referrals and better coordination.

He completed his residency at the University of South Florida, where he later served as an assistant professor, and worked as a hospitalist at Tampa General Hospital and St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital alongside specialists in cardiology, pulmonology, and hematology. That work earned him the USF Health Clinician of the Year award.

He leads the Tampa flagship, where appointments are unhurried and care plans are tailored to each member’s goals.

“By keeping my panel intentionally small, I can be thoughtful, responsive and proactive. I see myself as a long-term partner in my patients’ health, not just someone they see when something goes wrong.”

— Dr. Drew Meriwether
