Letter: Patient fighting to keep her Barton doctor
Submitted by paula on Mon, 04/29/2024 - 3:59pm
To the Editor; I thought I would have my doctor for a long time. I did not know that a state line would be the reason I was torn from her. I am writing this because it is not just myself that is feeling this loss. Every Medi-Cal patient that had a doctor move from Barton Family to Stateline Medical Center is feeling this loss. My doctor knows my medical history and knows me, this relationship has been cultivated over the years. The anxiety, and thinking about having to retrace my medical history and get acquainted with a new doctor is daunting.

Submitted by paula on Mon, 04/29/2024 - 11:40am

Our elected officials should allow open discourse - even if they don’t agree or like the comment. Deleting comments from the public square is anti-democratic and unethical for an elected official.
