INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Endoscopy Center of Naples, Inc.
Naples, Florida

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Endoscopy Center of
Naples, Inc. as of December 31, 1997, and the related statement of earnings and
retained earnings and cash flows for the year 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 audit.

We conducted our audit 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 Endoscopy Center of Naples, Inc. as of
December 31, 1997 and the result of its operations and its cash flows for the
year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Endoscopy Center of Naples, Inc. (the "Center") owns and operates a
      gastroenterology surgery center in Naples, Florida. The Center is owned by
      a group of physicians who perform endoscopy procedures at the Center
      through their related physician practices. The accompanying financial
      statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting from the
      separate records maintained by the Center. The Center and the affiliated
      physician practice operate out of the same facility. Certain expenses,
      primarily rent and utilities, have been allocated between the Center and
      the affiliated physician practice based on management's estimate of usage
      by these two entities. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements
      may not necessarily be indicative of the conditions that would have
      existed or the results of operations if the Center had been operated on a
      stand-alone basis.

      REVENUE RECOGNITION - Revenues consist of amounts billed for physicians'
      services in addition to the use of the Center's facilities (the "usage
      fee") billed directly to the patient or third-party payor. Revenues are
      reported at the estimated net realizable amounts from patients,
      third-party payors 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 1997,
      approximately 55%, of the Center's revenues were provided to patients
      covered under Medicare. Amounts that are determined to be uncollectible
      are charged against the allowance for uncollectible accounts.

      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.

      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 the estimates.

      UNAUDITED INTERIM INFORMATION - The unaudited interim financial statements
      include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments
      which management considers necessary for a fair presentation of the
      financial position and results of operations. The results of operations
      for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily
      indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

2.    NOTE PAYABLE

      The note payable represents a revolving line of credit which bears
      interest at 9.5% and is payable on demand.

4.    SUBSEQUENT EVENT

      Effective November 13, 1998 AmSurg Naples, Inc. ("AmSurg"), a subsidiary 
      of AmSurg Corp. (the "Company") acquired a sixty percent ownership 
      interest in the assets comprising the business operations of the Center. 
      Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of 
      November 13, 1998, by and among, AmSurg, the Company and the Center, 
      AmSurg paid $4,528,813 in cash as consideration for the sixty percent 
      ownership interest in the Center. Following the asset purchase, AmSurg 
      and the Center contributed their respective ownership in the assets of 
      the Center into a newly formed limited partnership, The Naples Endoscopy  
      ASC, L.P., and received proportionate ownership therein.

               UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
                              BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The unaudited pro forma balance sheet of AmSurg Corp. as of September
30, 1998, is presented to show the effects of the acquisition of the majority
interest in certain assets comprising the business operations of Endoscopy
Center of Naples, Inc. on November 13, 1998, as if it had occurred on September
30, 1998. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations are
presented to show the effects of the acquisition as if it had occurred on
January 1, 1997. 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.

         The unaudited pro forma financial information does not purport to
represent what the Company's financial position or 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 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1998.

                           the acquisition.

                  5.       To reflect minority owners' interest in assets

                  8.       To reflect additional miscellaneous general and

                           a result of the incremental increase in earnings
                           before income taxes.
