Where Space Meets ScheduleTampa Bay BetaBuild With Us
The MedRoom is starting in Tampa Bay as a local beta, not a finished marketplace. We are looking for thoughtful builders, healthcare operators, physicians, technologists, advisors, and strategic contributors who want to help shape the system before it scales.
The MedRoom will not be built by software alone. It will be built through conversations with physicians, practice owners, healthcare operators, Room Curators, Room Seekers, and thoughtful builders who understand that medical space affects more than rent. It affects provider flexibility, patient access, practice overhead, and how care reaches a community.
The right contributors are curious, practical, mission-aligned, and willing to help build carefully before scaling. This is not the right fit for people who only want to build a flashy platform, chase national expansion, or add complexity before the Tampa Bay Beta proves real demand.
The MedRoom did not begin as an idea on a whiteboard. It began with a real medical space question in Tampa Bay.
Jim Ong was working in real estate, helping doctors buy, sell, and search for medical office space. During one search, a doctor raised an important concern: was the space actually appropriate for medical use? Was it ADA-compliant? Were the clinical details right? Was it truly ready for the provider who needed it?
That question led Jim to Dexter Turner, a kind-hearted and deeply experienced healthcare operator who spent more than 30 years working with hospital systems in and around Tampa Bay. Dexter helped bring a healthcare operations lens to the conversation — because clinical space is not just square footage. It involves access, workflow, standards, privacy, equipment, and trust.
As Jim and Dexter talked through the issue, they realized the problem was larger than one doctor or one room. Across Tampa Bay, fully equipped clinical rooms can sit unused while qualified providers need professional, trusted places to serve people.
Tim Diesel later joined the effort to help think through the real estate, commercial space, and market side of the opportunity.
The MedRoom Tampa Bay Beta is the first step: a local validation system built to understand Room Curator supply, Room Seeker demand, and manual matching before anything is overbuilt.
We are starting carefully because trust matters here. This is healthcare space. Verification matters. Room suitability matters. The people involved matter.
The goal is simple:
Help underused clinical space serve more providers, more practices, and ultimately more people — without long-term contracts or unnecessary complexity.
This is for aligned contributors, not general job applications. Share enough context to help The MedRoom understand how you may be able to shape the Tampa Bay Beta.
