INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Mid-Florida Surgery Center, Inc.
Mount Dora, Florida

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Mid-Florida Surgery Center,
Inc. as of September 30, 1998, and September 24, 1999, and the related
statements of earnings and retained earnings and cash flows for the periods then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Mid-Florida Surgery Center, Inc. as of
September 30, 1998 and September 24, 1999, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for the periods then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                        MID-FLORIDA SURGERY CENTER, INC.
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
  YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998, PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 24, 1999, NINE MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (UNAUDITED) AND NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 (UNAUDITED)


(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A.   ORGANIZATION

         Mid-Florida Surgery Center, Inc. (the "Center") began operations in
1991 and operates an ophthalmology surgery center in Mount Dora, Florida. The
Center is owned by a group of stockholders which perform ophthalmology
procedures at the center through their related physician practice. As more fully
discussed in Note 5, a majority ownership interest in the assets of the Center
was acquired by AmSurg Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"). The financial statements for
the period ended September 24, 1999 represent the Center's results of operations
for the eleven months and twenty-four days prior to the acquisition of the
majority ownership interest.

B.   CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

         Cash and cash equivalents are comprised principally of demand deposits
at banks and other highly liquid short-term investments with maturities less
than three months when purchased.

C.   REVENUE RECOGNITION

         Revenues consist of amounts billed for the use of the Center's
facilities billed directly to the patient or third-party payer. Revenues are
reported at the estimated net realizable amounts from patients, third-party
payers and others, including Medicare and Medicaid. Such revenues are recognized
as the related services are performed. Contractual adjustments resulting from
agreements with various organizations to provide services for amounts which
differ from billed charges are recorded as deductions from patient service
revenues. During 1998 and 1999, approximately 79% of the Center's revenues were
provided to patients covered under Medicare and Medicaid. Amounts that are
determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for
uncollectible accounts.

D.   PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

         Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation for leasehold
improvements is recognized under the straight-line method over the remaining
term of the lease plus renewal options. Depreciation for equipment and furniture
and fixtures is recognized over useful lives of five to seven years.

E.   OTHER ASSETS

         Other assets consist principally of a deposit required in order for the
Center to have a noncalendar year-end as a Subchapter S corporation. The deposit
is refundable to the Center upon dissolution or a change in tax status.

F.   EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

         The Center sponsors a profit sharing plan to which the Center may
contribute a discretionary amount each year to be shared by eligible employees.
The Center also sponsors a defined contribution plan to which the Center makes
contributions on behalf of eligible employees based on a formula as defined by
the plan. During the year ended September 30, 1998, period ended September 24,
1999, nine months ended June 30, 1998 (unaudited) and nine months ended June 30,
1999 (unaudited), the Center incurred costs of $12,667, $7,864, $11,240 and
$5,559, respectively, associated with these plans.

G.   INCOME TAXES

         The Center has elected Subchapter S status of the Internal Revenue
Code, and accordingly, income taxes are the responsibility of the individual
stockholders of the Center. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been
reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

H.   MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

    UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION BASIS OF PRESENTATION



         The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations of AmSurg
Corp. for the year ended December 31, 1998 and nine months ended September 30,
1999, are presented to show the effects of the acquisition of the majority
interest in Mid-Florida Surgery Center, Inc. on September 24, 1999, as if it had
occurred on January 1, 1998. Mid-Florida Surgery Center, Inc. operates on a
fiscal period ending September 30. The pro forma information is based on the
historical financial statements of the Company and the acquired center, giving
effect to the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting and the
assumptions and adjustments in the accompanying notes to the pro forma
consolidated financial information. The allocation of the purchase price is
preliminary, but management does not believe it will change materially. For
proforma purposes, the Company's historical financial statements have been
combined with the respective fiscal periods of Mid-Florida Surgery Center (year
ended September 30, 1998 and nine months ended June 30, 1999).

         The unaudited pro forma financial information does not purport to
represent what the Company's results of operations would actually have been had
the transaction in fact occurred on the dates indicated above, nor to project
the Company's financial position or results of operations for any future date or
period. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments necessary
for a fair presentation have been made. This unaudited pro forma financial
information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes and the
consolidated financial statements of AmSurg Corp. and the related notes included
in the Company's 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1999.
