While renting for a couple of months this past winter I had a visit to The Villages hospital ER on El Camino Real. I don't have the minute by minute details but I was there from 2 PM till 9 PM before being admitted for a "severe life threatening condition". During that time I was in quite a bit of pain. After admitted in took another 2.5 hours before they could get approval from Dr for a pain med. It was a difficult 4 days in the hospital as I am not from the area and this was only the second time in the hospital since having my tonsils out at age nine. I could not understand the Doctors assigned to me because English was not their first language. Oh, as a side note the food was really bad but the nursing staff was very good. Getting discharged was also a nightmare.
