I have been involved with a group of parents for more than thirty years whose children were born with very unusual and very involved cardiovascular problems that last all of their lives. Adequate care or even good care is not good enough for them. We continue to take our daughter to Cincinnati Childrens Adult Cardiology Clinic because of her unusual plumbing and need for expert anesthesia care.* Some Children with Williams Syndrome have died from heart surgery performed at smaller, less experienced hospitals. I was hospitalized a year ago here, quite unexpectedly and spent a week in Critical Care and I received excellent care at TVRH . I felt the nurses there were superior in every way and caught things the doctors did not. I think TVRH is a decent hospital for most things. I think that The Villages has adequate health care and I think that the hospitals that you mentioned, Moffitt, Shands, Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville are good. We are very lucky that our company insurance pays for our daughters very specific needs at her age of 53. * Anesthesia Concerns | Williams Syndrome Association

Dad went to Urgent Care a few days ago around 2pm and was told they couldn't see him that day. So many sick people this time of year I guess.

No, you were perfectly clear. In your other post, you suggested that FL was not as good as other places. I get it, you think medical care is better up north and you cherry picked some hospital ratings to support your argument. I don’t happen to agree with the suggestion that “up north” is “better”, and I grew up in the north. Regarding your statement that you think Shands, Mayo, and Moffitt are “good”, as opposed to “very good” or “excellent”, what do you base this opinion on? I happen to think they are excellent based on having been at those facilities.

My 2 Cents
Our experience. Had complaint and wanted the best so flew to Houston, Texas, MD Anderson. Diagnosis was "Fibroids" don't let any one operate they will go away by themselves. Pain Continued so went to local Dr. Diagnosis is "Pancreatic" cancer operate immediately. Went to Mayo in Jacksonville for another opinion. Diagnosis: Stage 3+ Uterine Cancer. Operated and today is considered cured. Moral of the story: was not impressed with MD Anderson, local Dr. was terrible. Have seen multiple xrays of the pancrea, plus view from surgery..no sign of cancer. MR Anderson was just plain wrong. The above are facts..Opinion is if you are some one of importance or a challenging case you will get good results from MD Anderson, someone off the streets probably just as good as anywhere else. Use a 2nd opinion for any significant diagnosis. Have been back to Mayo in Jacksonville and am really impressed with their treatment and procedures and care. Am not new regarding the major clinics and teaching hospitals and regard Mayo as our first choice.
