There is no such thing as a general practitioner anymore. They are primary care physicians (PCPs) now, specialists in internal medicine or family medicine. Geriatric medicine is a subspecialty. We just left The Villages because we had too many PCPs in a short period of time. Could not get continuity of care. Doctors and nurse practitioners left their practices frequently without replacements available. I too got kicked out of the PCP practices owned by The Villages.
