In this week’s issue of the Journal (paper version out on the street now, web version up tomorrow, Nov. 28), we write about a shortage of ob-gyn docs in Humboldt, and how St. Joseph Health System’s talk of possibly closing down Redwood Memorial Hospital’s OB program might be one of several influencing factors. Now, in a news release this afternoon, Erin Dunn, CEO of the Fortuna Chamber of Commerce, says there will be a community meeting Dec. 5 to talk about the potential closure of Redwood Memorial’s OB program.
