The residents of Central Florida volunteer to participate in clinical trials for many different reasons. Some get involved to help in the advancement of science. Many do not have health insurance and their participation in Clinical trials, at no cost to them, help them to receive study related medical care. Participants are typically reimbursed for time and travel while in a clinical trial.
While participating in Clinical trials, patients remain under the care of their PCP for routine and sick visits. Clinical research trials do not replace normal health care. Study coordinators (with participants’ permission) may update the study participants’ primary care doctors regularly with copies of test results. We are a research facility, not a Primary Care Practice. Participants will come to the Medical Research Group for the indication(s) and diagnosis that the clinical trials are addressing. Patients can participate only in one trial at a time.
Medical Research Group of Central Florida offers the residents of Central Florida the absolute best in clinical trial management. If you think that you or someone you know could benefit from our services, please call one of our offices.
