    (the "Original S-8") registered 1,500,000 shares of the
    Registrant's Common Stock. At the Company's 1996 annual meeting of

    to the Plan approved by the Registrant's shareholders at the
    Company's annual meeting, and the effectiveness of this Registration
    Statement on Form S-8, the total number of shares registered on Form
    S-8 and available for grant under the Plan will be 2,500,000.

         Re:     Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         On the date hereof, Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc., a Florida
corporation (the "Company"), sent for filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"),
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").  The Registration
Statement relates to the offering and sale by the Company of up to 1,000,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common
Stock"), pursuant to stock options ("Options") granted or to be granted under
the Company's Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan, as amended (the "Plan").

We have acted as special counsel to the Company in connection with the
preparation and filing of the Registration Statement.

         In connection therewith, we have examined and relied upon the original
or a copy, certified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company; (ii) records of corporate
proceedings of the Company authorizing the Plan, any amendments thereto, and
the preparation of the Registration Statement and related matters; (iii) the
Registration Statement and exhibits thereto; and (iv) such other documents and
instruments as we have deemed necessary for the expression of the opinions
herein contained.  In making the foregoing examinations, we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted
to us as originals, and the conformity to original documents of all documents
submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies.  As to various questions of
fact material to this opinion, we have relied, to the extent we deem reasonably
appropriate, upon representations or certificates of officers or directors of
the Company and upon documents, records and instruments furnished to us by the
Company, without independently checking or verifying the accuracy of such
documents, records and instruments.

         Based upon the foregoing examination, we are of the opinion that the
Company presently has available at least 1,000,000 authorized and unissued
shares of Common Stock from which the 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock proposed
to be sold pursuant to the exercise of Options granted under the Plan may be
issued, and, assuming that the Company maintains an adequate number of
authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock available for issuance to those
persons who exercise Options granted under the Plan and the consideration for
shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to such Options is actually received by
the Company as provided in the Plan, the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant
to the exercise of Options granted under and in accordance with the terms of
the Plan will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

         We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.  In giving such consent, we do not admit that we come
within the category of

regulations of the Commission thereunder.


                                         Sincerely,
