I sure hope I can soon get settled in with a permanent eye dr-missing my drs from back home.

We got our letter from Preferrred Care today in the mail listing new drs in the plan and yes, Mid Florida Eye is on the list for Aug 1. We do have to get authorization though to have Dr Meizell, the retina specialist. Called right away to get an appt and start the process. Hubby needed a procedure in March and was denied because they dropped Mid Fla Eye so now he can get it done.

It appears that the doctors at Mid-Florida Eye are all in Mt. Dora. Is that your read?

No, Jojo,Look in Marion County at Summerfield(just past Walmart on 441. )on your list from Preferred Care.

Rats! I'd hoped to go to Mid-Florida Eye! Well, next time!!! I was happy with the other group but then didn't have anything too serious.

Oh yes - I missed that on the list. We are looking for an ophthalmologist. Does anyone know of Dr. Charles or Goldey or Panzo at Mid-Florida in Summerfield?

[Mimivillager]

Yes, my hubby had Panzo at Summerfield and we really liked him.

When I said NO, I meant not just Mt Dora. Yes they are back in-yeay!
