PCP Dr Sara Gitte
 
I was hospitalized briefly and asked five healthcare workers who attended me who their PCP was. This name came up three times. We signed up with her 10 yrs ago and so did several couples we referred. We are all still with her and are impressed with her extensive knowledge and thoughtful care. She accepts regular Medicare. Not advantage plans.

Dr. Sara Gitte, M.D.
Lakeview Heath Care
Office: 352-633-5282
1950 Laurel Manor Drive

Do The Villages Health clinics not accept original Medicare?

No they do not. Had to drop my PCP that I really liked when I retired and went to regular medicare because they only take medicare advantage (because they get a better reimbursement).

Back in NY we had Crystal Run Healthcare which had a full complement of specialties from Primary to Surgery. Thank you...

Dr. Novis is accepting new patients and I just switched to him after dropping my employer policy when I retired. He seems to be very knowledgeable and takes time (30 minutes for me) with each patient.

Correct. It’s all about money.
They get paid whether they see you or not. What a racket.
