Same challenge here when our primary doc unexpectedly left the area. We decided to switch to Villages Health. Very few Villages docs accepting new patients. I called "early" with new Dr Zimmerman at Colony and will see her in mid Sept. Mr 07 called yesterday and now she is scheduling into December. Sumter Creekside only seems to have 5 rather than 7-8 docs. Are they still staffing up docs in some centers.
I have heard once you are in the system and past the initial you do get appropriately fast response to your needs. Meanwhile we feel adrift without a PCP.
