French Normandy Village is a City of Coral Gables thematic historic village whose historic section was constructed in 1926–1927 and designed by architects John and Coulton Skinner. The City describes its half-timbering, shingled gabled roofs, and projecting second-story sections as resembling a 15th-century French village, and gives the boundary streets as LeJeune Road, Viscaya Court, Viscaya Avenue, and Alesio Avenue. The homes are private residences rather than public-access attractions; the reviewed sources do not establish routine tours, hours, admission, or public entry. Public options below are separate Coral Gables facilities and are not inside the village by implication.

Visit official resource →How telehealth fits a local routine
Luma Health provides online medical weight-management evaluation to eligible Florida adults. Virtual care can reduce travel time and make follow-up easier to coordinate around work, family, and commuting. It does not replace emergency care, preventive primary care, or an in-person evaluation when a clinician determines one is necessary.
Provider-guided care from home
Submitting an assessment does not guarantee treatment or a prescription. A licensed clinician reviews each patient's medical history and determines whether treatment is appropriate.
Check eligibility →Build a sustainable weekly plan
Start with one realistic activity route, one reliable food-shopping option, and one repeatable movement or meal-planning habit. Discuss significant changes in activity, diet, or medication with an appropriate healthcare professional.
