Florida Medical Clinic is focused on recruiting and retaining a dedicated group of specialists and subspecialists to further develop the depth and breadth of their services for the community. Recently, they recruited Dr. James Sotrop (and his practice) for his well-known patient-centered focus and his expertise. Dr. Sotrop’s office location will remain the same.
James Sotrop, M.D. was born in the Midwest and has lived in several different cities. He attended undergraduate school at the University of Iowa and continued with his graduate studies at the University of Iowa College of Medicine.
Dr. Sotrop completed postgraduate training at the Medical College of Wisconsin (formerly Marquette). In 1982, he moved to Florida. He practiced private medicine and also worked at a walk-in clinic before buying his father’s practice. He has been practicing medicine in the Tampa Bay area for more than 35 years.
Dr. Sotrop explained, “We are a comprehensive family doctors office. Many other primary care offices are focusing on agendas like weight loss, skin screenings, breaks and sprains, but we do all of that within our practice. This is the way my father ran his practice, and that’s what I do as well. We consider ourselves to be the manager of your health and we have wonderful relationships with all of the specialists to treat your advanced conditions. We take pride in our diagnostics and working with our patients through whatever treatment and specialty they may need. Our comprehensive care, follow up, and genuine interest is what sets us apart.”
There are two dedicated ARNP’s that assist Dr. Sotrop in his primary care practice. They specialize in women’s and men’s health, preventative care, pediatrics, physical exams, and diagnostics.
Dr. Sotrop and his staff’s practice is best known for partnering with their patients to make the best health care decisions for you. Their practice has enhanced the health of the community for over 35 years, and their top priority is the well-being of you and your family. For your convenience, the practice even offers same-day appointments for minor illnesses or acute conditions.
