Primary care physician
 
We need a primary care physician not affiliated with The Villages Health network. We would prefer someone who is not test crazy and accepts medicare and US Healthcare

Good luck with that! That's how some defraud Medicare. Plus, push pills for pocket change from pharmaceutical companies. Some Women in particular are guineapigs. Which some times the side effects are worst that what they trying to manage. Notice I said manage. They don't want to cure something, no money in cure for pharmaceutical companies.

I agree with topspinmo,. In 10 years I have not found a PMP so I use one of my specialist as my PMP....and I am not interested in belonging to TVHN

We use Dr James Brown in Belleview. Seems to be a very honest DR and doesn't push anything on us. He is right next to Pizza Hut on 441 in Belleview.

Check out Sabal Direct Primary Care in Ocala.

Unless they are magicians or want to be sued, some tests are in order to find out if you are sick or healthy.

I am not sharing our good one. I will have to wait for two hours to get in, because he is kind and listens and smart too.

I am usually not selfish............

OH O.K. It is Dr. Felix Agbo.

Don't tell him about your wonderful grandchildren because he will listen and I may be sitting out there, my hair getting whiter...........sigh.

I would suggest that you Google the physician (s) mentioned here and check out the rating(s). A friend of mine uses Dr Brown ( Belleview ).

Please let me know ... I got kicked off The Villages Health System when they dropped my BC/BS insurance.
I crossed the parking lot and now a going to Premier Medical Associates. They are overwhelmed by members and
the place is not clean. The staff is overworked and they make mistakes.

I will be looking also, just got kicked off VHC. Said they won't accept Medicare as primary and I won't give up Tricare for life, and won't pay for another supplement that I already have coverage for.

Mo,.. With Tri Care For Life, you have practically unlimited options. We use the following.

Family Doctors of Belleview Tel. 352-245-9157 and you will be all set.

PS: I know you from Saddlebrook Pickleball, along with Matty and Michelle, who I know as well. Your both Terrific !!

I did notice however, your timing is slightly off on your backhand...just a pinch...1/2 second tops.

Enjoy your cruise and Bon Voyage Mo, and of course Matty.

I think you have confused with coach mo. I do play some times at saddle brook but, not that often. Topspin related to tennis, which I use the same strokes in pickleball, just not as loopy. Thanks for the number I'll check it out.
