How to find a good doctor
I haven’t had to visit a doctor at the Villages doctor, but no doubt I will at some point. I’ve got a good PPO supplemental Medicare plan, and just looking for tips on how to find the best doctors in the area, whether PCP or specialists. Are there any good ‘doctor finder’ web sites, for example, and what to look for/what to stay away from? Thanks.

Meet with the folks at SHINE and they should be able to help you. You'll have to do a search (on here, I think) as I don't have contact info. IF you're not a part of The Villages Health, it might be a challenge of hit and miss before you find someone. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

I'd also advise striking up a relationship with a doctor/clinic before you need one. Not all doctors, even if approved by your plan, are taking on new patients. Good luck. |

Like rolling the dice. Some excellent doctors here and some not so good. Also some that start out good and change for some reason.

I always wondered how this works. Do I stop by a clinic and say, "Hi, I don't need a doctor, but I'd like to strike up a relationship with one. Who would you recommend?"

Obviously, the sooner you do this the better, even though there is nothing wrong with you at this time. |

Like any place else we have good ones and bad ones.
Best advise is to spend some time with advisor from Shina. We like out Dr but she is currently not accepting new patients. |

This list doesn't make any recommendations. It simply lists many of the choices available to you.

If there is a sign out front that says " Walk-ins Welcome" stay away. I had two of them and both were worthless, one even said I should come more often so he could make more money to stay in business. I couldn't believe he said that and I never went back. There are good doctors here as well as in Leesburg and Ocala, just got to check their reviews. A lot of times there are good doctors with terrible employees out front.
