The office staff at Mid-Florida Eye told me that only Lake County folks with Preferred Care Partners can be seen there. This is NOT true!!!! I spoke with their main office and you can be seen by the opthamologists there BUT need a referral from an optometrist (which will need to be from Lange...as they're in network and the MFE optometrists are not). The office personell at MFE weren't well informed on this. I've heard Dr. Panzo is a very good doctor to see for eye issues.

I was told that referrals for "any" specialists would be needed with PCP. Not sure that that is the case in 2011. I will try them for one year and then will see re-evaluate next Fall.
