Southland Hospital is losing both of its urologists. This means patients from Southland will need to travel to Dunedin, where there's already a shortage of urologists.
Health NZ is making the usual soothing noises... 'our focus is on patients' while doing nothing practical to sort the problem.
Who remembers Luxon claiming that National's massive cuts to the health service wouldn't affect front line operations? Because urology is as front line as it gets.
