I do not know of the orthopedic institute in Ocala with 3.5 stars. Now Florida Orthopedic Institute {FOI} is another story .They get 6 stars of 5. Their Tampa facility have done both hips, 1 knee, replaced 6 back discs. They are unique in that their Drs are VERY specialized. The knee guy does just knees, the hip guy does just hips. If you ever want to find out what kind of work a Dr. does check out with injury protection lawyers like Morgan & Morgan. They even give them 5 stars.
