亚洲天堂 Lake is without a full time doctor for approximately six weeks.
The news comes after Dr. Allan Hill, 亚洲天堂 Lake's only full time physician recently returned to England, citing personal reasons.
According to Northern Health, Dr. Hill had already planned to take a vacation for most of September and had previously organized locum coverage for that month, however he was required to leave earlier than expected, which resulted a gap in coverage.
Steve Raper, Northern Health's communications officer said to Lakes District 亚洲天堂 that they do not know the reason why Dr. Hill left early, but he said they are working on organizing locum coverage for the 10 day gap.
They are also working closely with part time doctors [Dr. Michael Graetz and Dr. Trevor Campbell] at the 亚洲天堂 Lake Medical Clinic.
Dr. Graetz and Dr. Campbell work on a two week rotation in 亚洲天堂 Lake.
"Dr. Hill's patients will be covered," said Raper.
He went on to say that a couple of physicians have already been organized to arrive in 亚洲天堂 Lake to cover Dr. Hill's absence in September.
"亚洲天堂 Lake is still covered for health care," he added.
