I spent two nights two weeks ago in The Villages Hospital. Had major surgery. I saw only my own doctor (no staff doctors) every morning. Received excellent care by the nurses. Received my pain meds upon request with no problem. Nurses checked on me continuously. It did take them a while to get me a bed after my surgery. I spent about 5 hours in the recovery room because of this, but also received excellent care while there. Having visited several emergency rooms while in Ohio and Michigan I have had to wait many many hours to be seen there also so I think it is the same wherever you go with long waits in emergency rooms. I think it is hit and miss depending on how busy it is.
