Physicians and surgeons clinics are present in Gainesville. This is a healthcare facility that primarily treats outpatients, though overnight stay and operating facilities are also available for the surgeons. The clinic can be owned by an organization, or it can be co-owned by the physicians and surgeons who man it. The physicians can be of various specializations, such as general medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, endrocrinology, cardiology, pediatrics, etc. The surgeons may also be either general surgeons or specializing in particular areas. One can take an appointment here with the desired doctor or surgeon, or come on a referral. Treatment is usually covered by insurance, but you would be wise to check in advance.
