Bill, Your opinion piece is so thoughtful that residents would benefit by reading it again. Too bad the El Camino Hospital Board didn't agree with many of your suggestions - increasing the size of the Board, making some agreement with Camino Medical Group, which continues to grow and siphon business away from the hospital, and taking a strong stand over conflicts of interest. Their inaction over the last year will have lasting consequences for all District residents.

Amazing to read this today with El Camino announcing record "profits." It just keeps getting worse and worse.
