An Optum-operated OB-GYN practice in Rock Hill, N.Y. will close July 1, the Sullivan County Democrat reported May 8.
Crystal Run Healthcare’s OB-GYN department at its Rock Hill location will cease operations June 30. Three of the four physicians are relocating — Marie Abougou, MD, to Sun River Health in Monticello, N.Y., and Irvelyne Camille, MD, to Garnet Health Doctors in Harris, N.Y., where she will also serve as medical director of OB-GYN. The remainder of the Rock Hill facility will remain open.
The closure continues a pattern of OB-GYN consolidation in the region, according to the publication.
