Does anyone have a good suggestion for a gastroenterologist in or near The Villages? What about orthopedic for spine?? Thx for the help! :)

Dont you first need a referral from regular physician?

Don't have a good recommendation, but will say that we were disappointed with Dr Nehme Gabriel (Gastroenterologist) and won't go back...he's on SR 44 near the Brownwood Sq entry...we felt like a number given 'template advice' and told to come back in three weeks

second visit we thought we were going to see him, but it was the nurse practitioner with an elitist / distant / clinical attitude

Yes, but I thought I'd do a little "homework" before I speak with her.

I use Dr Vaneldik with offices in Ocala and The Villages. I have a relatively complex gastro history and found him to be helpful.

Dr Lily Tran is excellent as a gastroenterologist. She is in Lady Lake near Billy's cafe.
