JC, you brought up a Great Point about Life Expectancy! A good friend of mine has been fighting cancer for years, lives in Ocala, that clinic has kept him alive!
My problem is I live a couple thousands of miles away in the Four Corners in New Mexico! We have one of the biggest shortages of doctors in the country!
The ones that are here are BAD!
The Scottsdale Mayo will only take referrals!
Luckily my PSA is Good!
But I do have other medical issues that no one here can ID. Either Lyme, Fibromyalgia or CIPD.
Good Luck!
Sundance

Ocala is south of me. I used to drive from Vero Beach (3 hours) to Mayo until I moved to Jacksonville area in 2015. We fell in love with a Del Webb Community here in Nocatee area. It has an indoor heated lap pool which we can use year round to walk, swim, water aerobics, etc.
When I read your comment about the quality of health care in your area I then realize I am fortunate to have Mayo clinic 20 minutes away.
When I first came to Mayo Jacksonville in 2006 they did not even have a hospital. They had one building the Davis building. Since then hospital built and keesp expanding upward and there are at least a dozen new buildings with all kinds of specialties.
