QUINCE, Associate Judge.

Michael Cascio (Cascio) challenges the grant of summary judgment in favor of St. Joseph Hospital of Port Charlotte, Inc. and Rita Greer, R.N. in this medical malpractice action. We reverse because the trial court erred in finding that the nature of the injury put Cascio on notice that medical negligence possibly caused his injury thus commencing the running of the statute of limitations on the date of injury.
