At 8:00PM she was still not seen and no one came out to even checked to see why she was there that long. She finally left at 8PM and went to Leesburg Hospital where she was seen within 1/2 hour and was diagnose with a possible mini stroke and vertigo. We as a family will never again use the Villages Hospital.

I was in TV Hospital this past July and had quite a different experience. I went to the ER at 7 pm after feeling disoriented from excessive sun exposure from working in the garden. Within 10 min I was called in, my blood pressure taken which was over 200, and I was having trouble answering basic questions. I was sent out to waiting room and in 15 min I was taken back in for a Cat scan of my head, an EKG and chest X-ray. I was then placed in a holding area and was told I was staying over night for observation. I was in my hospital room around 12 and was immediately attended to. I was in a beautiful, clean room, and the Aides couldn't do enough for me, even running the bathroom water to make sure it was warm enough for me to bathe. The next day as I was waiting to be discharged, an Aide coming on duty, came into my room and wanted to know if he could get my husband and I anything while we were waiting. My symptoms were serious enough to alert the staff that I was close to having a stroke and they reacted promptly and in a professional manner. I have nothing but good things to say about this Hospital and I am sorry that you had a bad experience and hope your daughter is ok.
