My wife had been seeing one of the Specialists for several years. That continued when Doctor closed her practice and went with Specialty Care group. Now that that has changed, in order for wife to see same doctor she would have to be set up as new patient with Villages Healthcare group and I assume start with a new primary care physician, despite the fact that she is extremely happy with her PCP who is not part of this group.
Looks like if the need arises in future for a specialist it won't be the same one she had seen in the past several years.
I am starting to understand why some doctors who have had long established practices in TV are more than a little unhappy with the new 800 pound gorilla.
