Yes, you can get the same doctor in an Ocala office that will be less than the Village office visit.

We have been here 8 years and had some good doctors and some not so good in here. We have now ended up at Shands Med Plaza,Gainesville for ALL our medical needs. We found them to have the best doctors and all our records, blood tests, etc. are in one computer. Plus, they are a teaching hospital so you always have a second,third opinion. We got there because my wife was having a problem that 5 different doctors could not diagnose here. Shands nailed it on the first appointment.

Down side, its about an hour drive but Gainesville has really neat restaurants and things to do. Always turns out to be a fun day.
