Getting to a doctor's appointment in Sumter County shouldn't be a source of stress. For many seniors and individuals with mobility challenges, however, securing a dependable ride can be a significant hurdle. Family and friends have their own schedules, and relying on public transit isn't always practical, especially if you need extra assistance. This is the gap we fill. Comfort Ride Transportation provides safe, reliable, and compassionate non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) for those who can't drive themselves but don't require an ambulance. We specialize in helping you maintain your independence and health by ensuring you never miss an important medical visit, whether it's for a routine check-up, a specialist consultation, or ongoing treatments like dialysis.
Our door-to-door service is designed with your comfort and safety as our top priorities. Unlike a standard taxi or rideshare service, our drivers are trained professionals who understand the unique needs of our passengers. From the moment we pick you up at your home in The Villages to when we safely escort you into your doctor's office in Bushnell, we provide hands-on assistance every step of the way. We offer an arm to lean on, help with navigating building entrances, and ensure you are settled in comfortably before we leave. This personalized approach provides peace of mind not just for you, but for your loved ones as well, who can rest assured knowing you are in capable and caring hands. It matters because consistent medical care is key to managing health, and our service removes the transportation barrier that often stands in the way.
We are equipped to handle a wide range of mobility needs across Sumter County. Our fleet includes modern, clean vehicles outfitted with hydraulic wheelchair lifts and securement systems to ensure a smooth and safe journey. For clients who are bed-bound or require non-ambulatory transport post-surgery, we also offer stretcher services, handled with the utmost dignity and care. A single ride with us can cost anywhere from $35 to over $100, depending on the distance and level of assistance needed. Our commitment is to provide a seamless transportation experience, allowing you to focus on what truly matters—your health and well-being—without the worry of how you'll get there.
At our core, we provide reliable and safe wheelchair and stretcher transport to help you maintain your independence. Losing the ability to drive doesn’t mean losing your freedom, and our service is here to bridge that gap.

Our goal is to make every journey safe, comfortable, and stress-free, so you can focus on what matters most—your health and well-being.
Our team of trained professionals goes above and beyond to ensure your experience is seamless. Every driver is CPR certified and trained to assist passengers with disabilities, offering a level of care and professionalism you can trust. We don’t just drop you off at the curb; we personally assist you through the door of your medical facility or home, ensuring you feel supported every step of the way. With us, you’re not just a passenger—you’re in capable, caring hands.
