It takes time
UF has only had control of TV and Leesburg for < 12 months. It takes 3-5 years for new management to make a major impact on quality of care and outcome scores. You will be surprised at the changes that are set to come. In the meantime if you want more quality you will need to go to other UF Facilities such as Shands, Tampa General or Jacksonville which are listed no. 3,2,1 in the state respectively as top hospitals. So we are in a waiting game. You also can try the Orlando Hospital system. It also is top rated. As someone who has been in hospital management and new here we will be going to Shands. I have colleagues who worked there who were top their national professional societies and I have great respect for them. I also received my doctorate from UF in 2000 and was trained by their leaders. I have great respect for them. Having spent almost 30 years in the Houston Medical Center, the largest medical center in the world and home to many of the top hospitals in the US and world, UF is a decent system. Give them time to make improvements.
