Default Urgent Care

What urgent care would you recommend. There are so many to choose from.

I use the one in Sumter Landing closest to Winn Dixie. I have a miserable infection that recurs regularly and I find they are excellent plus my doctor recommended them for weekend emergency.

Are they even open now? In previous years I used them also, because they had a real doctor and an x-ray machine (versus the one on the other end of the complex, that only had a NP and no machine), but I stopped by around 6:00pm a couple of months ago and they were dark and totally closed. At first I thought it was outside their working hours, but then read a bunch of political rantings taped to the door about being forced to close - that made it obvious someone was pretty mad. Almost like they had went off the deep end. I did have good luck at the one on 44, across the street and just east from Publix.

Must not be very “urgent” if you are asking on here.

With this decision being so important I am wondering if you will base your decision on feedback from this site?

Agree on this one. It’s now called Vizavee, used to be called 441 Urgent Care. Was there yesterday, good care. They sent me to Lake Medical imaging for X-ray, which is one bldg over. Also saw PA not doc if that makes a difference to you.

On 466a, just west of Buena Vista called Ocala Health ER now known as HCA ER. They have the best care around. If your problem is serious enough for hospitalization, you are taken to HCA/Ocala Health Hospital or HCA/West Marion Hospital. They apologize if you have to wait 20 minutes to be seen. They have doctors and machines on-site that are necessary for diagnosis and treatment. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

For Veterans using the VA there is a list of urgent care centers who partner with VA. Show the VA ID and the bill goes to VA. A list may be obtained at the Villages VA lobby volunteer desk.

Went there late one night for a cut finger that would not stop bleeding and they were very good.

I thought they had stopped using the umbrella. Unfortunately later that evening my wife was jumping up from her chair as a bat was flying around her head. I finally closed the lanai doors when it flew back there, then I opened the lanai doors and it flew out. After that I put up a bat house. I thought they never used it as it appeared empty, but then early one morning I saw all these bats flying back into the house. I think I have about 20 small bats in there. I read a number of books and enjoy having bats nearby. Good luck to OP in solving their bat issue.
You are kind of sort of in the wrong thread but was an interesting post.
