Urgent Care Office @ LSL
 

Last Friday just before 4PM I found myself having to go to this facility due to a mangled thumb (long story, will tell later).

The staff was very efficient, handled the paperwork and co-pay quickly, was seen by a tech and a physician within 15 minutes, and out the door, bandaged, one tenanus shot later and with a prescription for antibiotics (told FREE @ SweetBay & Publix, which was true!), and all questions answered with dignity and respect, gone by about 4:30PM.

My experience was probably best effected by timing (no one in waiting area when I showed up). Nevertheless, the attitude of all who were there, and their demonstrated professionalism, made it the best "emergency room" minor care experience I've had.

Good service deserves praise - they got it!

Great

Very sorry to hear of your injury but thanks for posting this encouraging message. I will be a resident within 5 weeks and living near LSL; would you mind replying and letting me know exactly where this office is located? Really hope the injury heals well and quickly.

Sorry..
 

There are a couple of medical services buildings on the south side of the LSL complex. You can't miss them.

thank you SteveZ

Steve, hope thumpkin is feeling much better. Have you shared the experience yet or did I miss that? I'm thinking powertool, hope I'm wrong and also happy you can still type!

How were the prices compared to a doctors office or emergency room?

It involved two dogs, a chew toy, bad vision and my clumsiness - all a recipe for finding out that a $15 deductible can solve most of my mistakes....

For those of us not living in TV yet, would you be kind enough to explain where is the LSL office. Thank you

Hello .... I asked the very same question on 10/01 and Steve responded as to the location on 10/02. Just scan up to those dates on this thread and you can see his reply.

I had a very good experience at the new center, Paramount, in the Santa Fae ctr on 466.

Dont you think I would have been easier to tell where it is. Thank you anyway.

Excuse me, efranhingarcia, but because I am not a resident, yet, I believed it was "safer" for you to read the location posted by an actual resident. I did provide the date of his posting and thought that would help. I'll have to think twice about trying to help in the future.

I don't know for sure that this is the same place that SteveZ visited, but I had necessity to visit the LRUC (Lake Regional Urgent Care) facility at 910 Old Camp Rd., Suite 114 in the Sumter Landing vicinity. The office is in the "professional offices" area located behind the Sweetbay grocery store. I actually had to visit them twice, to treat a case of bronchitis. (I needed a stronger antibiotic than first prescribed.) I found the staff and treatment to be good. I had a short wait, nothing to complain about. I would return to them any time a need arises and would recommend them. I can't comment on the costs since my insurance covered everything.

What are there hours? Are they open 24X7? Would be great if they were.

No...
 

NOTHING is open 24 hours in TV! I agree! It would be great if the Urgent Care facilities were open 24 hours. It just makes sense. :confused:

Hospital emergency room is open 24X7. So what are the hours? 8 to 5, 8 to 8, 6 AM to midnight? The place is useless to any of us unless we know by going there we can get in. Urgent care means you need it now. And if it's 6:25 AM and I don't know, I will go directly to the hospital.

This website provides the hours of operation.

Thank you Halle.

Thanks
 

Thanks for this feedback as if we need a good Urgent Care facility it is good to know where to go. We tried one (not this one) and it was terrible. We would never go back.
We heard about the LSL urgent care from our neighbor who really liked the care and we will go there if we ever need that kind of service again.
Again, thanks..

Another positive vote for the urgent care center at LSL. Had recent occasion to use it - good care, modern technology, professional staff.

I also had a positive experience. HOWEVER, I did note that they seem to have a practice of not accepting patients (they lock the door) 30 minutes before the time they post as the closing time. It did not affect me but did affect 3 patients who arrived after me.

Maybe it was date night.

Lake Regional Urgent Care at Sumter Landing
 

My wife and I have both tried 3-4 internal med/family practices around The Villages. We have not found anyone as knowing and caring as the urgent care. Dr. Domenick and Dr. Proud(husband and wife) and the other M.D.'s there are efficient and know what they are doing. My wife was diagnosed with a weird autoimmune disease, and the people at Shands said we were really lucky our M.D.(Dr. Domenick) had sent us up there quickly. With uneven results at the other practices we tried, we now use Lake Urgent Care exclusively as our primary care Physicians!! As a retired DDS, I have utmost confidence in LRUC!!

Urgent Care LSL
 

My wife had an unfortunate experience at an Urgent Care facility and based on the comments in TOTV she decided to go to the Urgent Care at Lake Sumter. We cannot say enough good things about them. Their care, their caring and all the other stuff that goes with medical treatment could not have been better. From the moment you walk in the building you are treated kindly and the Dr's could not be better. To say we strongly recommend them would be an understatement..

Glad things turned out so well Steve. I had a similar experience with the LRUC in LSL last Summer after I messed up my rotator cuff. I wonder what our experience would have been if HR 3200 Healthcare Reform Act had been enacted into law.
