Florida Cancer Specialists Expands Marion County Footprint with Two New Oncologists
Event summary
- Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute (FCS) added hematologists Sean Cohen, MD and Ravi Koti, MD to its Marion County team on July 1, 2026.
- Dr. Cohen will serve patients at two Ocala locations while Dr. Koti will operate out of the FCS Ocala Easy Street clinic.
- Both physicians bring specialized training from institutions like Moffitt Cancer Center and SUNY Downstate Medical Center.
The big picture
This expansion aligns with FCS's strategy of strengthening its statewide network through targeted physician recruitment. The move comes as private oncology practices increasingly compete on both clinical excellence and access to cutting-edge treatments, particularly through robust clinical trial programs. With over 40 years in operation and a strong research partnership with Sarah Cannon Research Institute, FCS continues to position itself as a leader in Florida's competitive cancer care market.
