I disagree with you on The Villages ER, based on my recent experience (6) weeks ago. I chose The Villages only because it was closer & I wanted to see for myself whether they were Good or Bad based on what I have read.
My opinion: They the staff were terrific, however, wait, wait, wait is the norm to go from the ER to a room...why ? Staffing ! They The Villages simply do not have enough staff to cope. Plus The Villages Hospital is limited on what procedures they are able to do

Leesburg ER is 100% the complete total opposite. Ocala Regional is on par with Leesburg.
