Dr. Girgis has served as an ED physician at Bayfront Medical Center since 2005. She is currently the vice president of

her group, the Emergency Physicians of St. Petersburg. Dr. Girgis is also board certified in emergency medicine.

Dr. Girgis actively holds appointments on the medical staff at local emergency departments. She is active in the
