When I need to find a doctor, I do a bit of research. I search for reviews of the doctor I am considering (NextDoor, Talk of the Villages, etc - although I take these reviews with a grain of salt and look at the majority of reviews, not just one or two). Then I look at reviews from sites like healthgrades.com or vitals.com to see what the educational background and experience of the doctor is and also if there have been any malpractice suits against them. That research has served me well no matter where I've lived. That's how I found the doctors I have now here in The Villages and I've not had any problems with them.
