I have never experienced less that perfect and professional care by health providers in The Villages. On the other hand, I have been part of several conversations with those who have been here longer and have greater healthcare needs who state they have had quality care issues at some hospitals. One went in for a routine procedure and became infected in the hospital which probably happens from time to time but they were unable to remedy the situation after several weeks. This particular person went back to his previous Dr. and hospital in the midwest and the problem was cleared up almost immediately. Original diagnostics at a Villages area hospital turned out to be incorrect with the wrong treatment. I understand many people with more serious issues return to their home towns where they feel they received superior care for their ailments.
