New OB/GYN Patients Face Wait

Women in St. Clair County looking for a new OB/GYN will have to wait until about January, as McLaren Port Huron finishes taking over the county’s only full-service obstetrics and gynecology practice. The hospital bought Northpointe OB/GYN in October, and it now operates as McLaren Port Huron Obstetrics and Gynecology with 4 physicians and 1 nurse practitioner, down from 8 doctors just a few years ago. Current patients will keep their doctors, and hospital leaders say recruiting more OB/GYNs to Port Huron is now their top priority.
