The Franklin County Commission heard more comments about how AdventHealth Ottawa is running the hospital. Doctor Bud Gollier told the commission that with AdventHealth pausing their obstetrics services for several months…maybe it’s time to take a long hard look.
Ottawa Family Physicians informed AdventHealth about 6 months ago that they would no longer be able to provide birthing services at the hospital. AdventHealth Ottawa OFficials say the pause, which takes effect today, will give them time to recruit new doctors in the obstetrics field. They hope to resume the program next summer.
