You can make a difference

Fraser Health Authority announced last week, Peace Arch Hospital will be closing it's maternity ward!  What???   In a community with a lot of families, this did not make sense.  My GP, Dr. Semion Strovski is the head of maternity at this hospital.  He's been interviewed many times on TV and has been an advocate of this bad decision.

They told the future maternity patients they would have to go to Langley Hospital if they went into labour.  If you live in Crescent Beach it's a 35 minute drive and there is a level train crossing that can add on another ten minutes.  

It's had temporary closures in the past, but now they want to close it permanently.  Thanks to our Liberal MLA and the citizens of South Surrey/White Rock who protested they have reversed this ridiculous decision.  

I'm sure our health care system is in financial trouble and be prepared BC, more of these changes coming to a hospital near you!
