However its a new day and with the 2 new ER centers that have opened, has there been any improvement?
Has anyone used either of these new ER centers?

by SUMTER CO. ambulance, because OCALA ER is an OCALA free standing ER
So I learned..Only inconvenience was the fact they are not connected to the VILLAGES system, so therefore I had to have all my labs repeated..CT etc. And now I have to get all my medical records etc..from West Marion Hospital.
HOWEVER I AM SO EVERY GRATEFULL they were close by..
