The hospital had filed for bankruptcy in March 2020 and was sold to Roanoke, Va.-based American Healthcare Systems for more than $10 million.
Now, Randolph Health’s immediate focus is expanding staff and equipment for specialty care such as gastroenterology.
“We have one to three patients a day that we are having to send out because we don’t have the GI physicians,” Randolph Health CEO Tim Ford told Fox8.
The hospital plans to add a urologist and either a nurse practitioner or physician assistant, and aims to fill the gastroenterology department by mid-August.
