I, as many others, have a health issue at this time in my life and have come to live in TV alone (widow)...this certainly has put a damper on my move.

Don't let this thread ruin your move and your new Villager excitement. You'll find that a lot of things aren't really what you thought they were...but that's OK. You'll adapt and the fact of the matter is, there really isn't a better place for us all to be.
It's true that the medical situation is not good but I think with a little research you can find just the right physicians, labs, and clinics for you. Yes, there are some bad ones, but there are also some really good ones within driving distance...so I've been told.
Leesburg Hospital and Munro in Ocala and Waterman in Tavares all seem to get high reviews from patients and all are an easy drive from TV.
Good luck and Welcome to The Villages!!!
