1 doctor onsite. Very nice.
1 radiologist viewing x-rays remotely covering 3 UF facilities.
Waited 3 hours to have my x-ray read.
No one could tell me when the 1 radiologist would get to my x-ray.

Grand Children visiting. Didn't want to spend the 4th of July in the ER with no
assurance I would receive a diagnosis and treatment plan.
Left in frustration.

Where do you go for treatment of non-life threatning injuries on a holiday in the Villages? People get hurt on holidays to. Why the poor coverage?
More mismanagement by UF The Villages Hospital! Would never go there and trust their care. It is like going to the ER at TV hospital. The OP is correct Ocala Health on 466A is hands down the place to go for urgent care! They also have another facility on 441 near Camping World. Great care!
