To the Town Council of Los Gatos:
I was informed that your meeting this evening will include the topic of Community
Hospital of Los Gatos. As Chief-of=Staff of the hospital, I highly encourage you to do all
that you can to promote the continued viability of this entity as a community hospital. As
a resident of the area I know the town has its eye on the future in its quest to promote
youth and senior services.
What better way to move this vision forward than to retain and improve upon our
community hospital?
I thank you in advance.
Barbara Hom, M.D.
Chief of Staff
