T.G.H. Clinics Headed For Sonora Regional Medical Center

Sonora, CA — This morning at the weekly Board of Supervisors´ meeting C.A.O. Craig Pedro will recommend that the Board approve of Sonora Regional Medical Center´s takeover of the Rural Health Clinic and the Mother Lode Medical Center from Tuolumne General Hospital effective July 1.
