BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — San Dimas Medical Group in Southwest Bakersfield is apparently set to close its doors in November.
A notice was posted outside the facility, which is located on Old River Road at the intersection with Stockdale Highway. According to the notice, the facility is closing effective Thurs, Nov 30.
While the facility is shutting its doors, the notice states that two doctors, "Dr Klis" and "Dr Del Mundo," will continue to offer services to patients at a new location starting in December.
San Dimas Medical Group has released an official statement on the closure.
“San Dimas Medical Group has taken great pride in providing excellent care to patients in Kern County for the past 50 years," said the statement. "It is with great sadness that we announce San Dimas Medical Group’s closure effective November 30, 2023. It was an extremely difficult decision to make, but due to the current healthcare climate in the aftermath of COVID and the inability to successfully recruit OBGYN physicians, this practice is no longer sustainable."
"We are thankful for your patience with our office and staff as many of our employees have made great sacrifices to make it possible to continue to care for you," the statement continued. "We will do our best to continue to provide excellent care through this transition. It has been an honor and a privilege to provide for your healthcare needs. We hope the legacy we leave in the community is one of dignity and respect as we always strived to provide excellent care with a personal touch."
