Looking for a new family doctor in The Villages

Dr. Abu Azzizullah on 441 (352 391-5299). Or Dr. Maria Crystal in the same office.

clarissa abrantes MD

Dr Khan is a new doctor in Dr Abu's office. I really like her. She is into lifestyle and diet changes rather than handing you a prescription for everything.

I would recommend Dr. Cruz
 

Harvard grad and worked at Mass. Gen. for 10 years....great bed-side manner...Internist

Dr seth perkins on 441 .. hes young and very good

I went to a meet and greet with Dr. Agbo. I wasvery impressed with his training and treats his patients like an old style doctor would have.

I was there for about 40 minutes and he seemed to not mind at all as most doctors want to rush onto their next appointment. I felt totally comfortable when in his office, and his staff is super nice people.

Schedule a meet and greet sessions that will cost you nothing, and decide for yourself, if he is the right doctor for you.

I go to Dr. Marivec Villa. She also is not too quick with the prescription pad and takes a genuine interest in her patients. She offers many services, such as lab and pharmacy in house - but has no problem with me using my own lab & pharmacy. Her office is located on Buenos Aries. She participates in most insurance plans. (Just out of Golf Cart Range).

Having come from a medical family I have an eye for doctors who care and are willing to go the extra yard. One way to find a Dr is to ask RNs at the local hospital. A sort of 'off the record' question from at least three nurses.
I did just that and two of the three mentioned Dr. Banala.
NY trained Brooklyn Hospital.
With his aid I lost 24 pounds in six months. Lowered my BP and Cholesterol to half of what it was and followed his advice to get a cardio angiogram. HE FORCED ME to and I'm only 56 years old.
Last week they put a stent in with 80% blockage of the lower decending artery.
My cardio Dr was recommended my Banala and his staff is great.

I've considered moving to Sarasota to be near family but frankly after this I don't want to leave Dr. Banala

2B - You might want to check with your insurance company - I can't imagine any doctor meeting with someone for 40 minutes and not billing for it. The meet and greet at The Villages Health is several hundred dollars.

What is Dr. Cruz's first name? Which practice is he/she in? What is the address and the telephone number?

Bayoan Martinez-Cruz, MD
1400 S US Hwy 441
The Villages FL 32159
Building #920, Suite #922
352-750-6650

He has his own practice (not part of another practice); it's known as Martinez-Cruz Medical Associates of The Villages. His office is just south of the Sharon Morse Building and close to The Villages Regional Hospital (same parking lot and golf cart accessible).

Do a search on TOTV using his name and see the positive comments written about him. He was trained in internal medicine and serves his patients as a primary care physician. He was on the staff of Harvard Medical School for several years before moving to Florida. He's a terrific diagnostician and a great listener, and he is affiliated with most insurance companies. I've been his patient for seven years (even before he was in private practice), and I can assure you that if you were to make an appointment with him, you will not be disappointed!

Excellent doctor, I was there yesterday.

I agree, he's a great doctor. We also had a wonderful internist (when we lived up north) at Mass Gen.Hospital in Boston for 20 yrs who was also a full professor @ Harvard Med. and since being here in this area for 9yrs; Dr.Cruz is the closest in similar professionalism we've been accustomed to. (we just started going to him and are glad we found him) Love him!

I should add that Dr. Cruz told me two new specialists have arrived in TV, one from Brigham & Womens and the other from another noted hospital in the North East. He also told me there is a superb orthopedic (sp) specialist in the area from New England Baptist .................

So, if you build it, they will come -----------------
