joeyp said:Hoag didn't buy Irvine Regional Hospital. Irvine Regional Hospital was owned by Tenet. Tenet decided to shut it down and move out of the building when their lease was up.
Hoag is going to lease in the same place, and after extensive renovations (1-2 years) open a new hospital with new staff, new equipment, etc.
that makes sense, i did read somewhere hoag is turning it into an ortho specialtyMojoJD said:A doctor's group (mostly ortho surgeons) is going in on the venture with Hoag, from what I understand. It may have changed since I last heard. I know of the group and they are some of the best at what they do. They handle a lot of the Angels/Ducks sports injuries right now, I believe.
Like I said, I dont know if that deal was ever finalized.
