Burgstahler has the experience, knowledge we need

| May 16, 2019 1:00 AM

I’m voting for Dr. Scott Burgstahler for the Pend Oreille Hospital District board.

He is a local with the knowledge and experience to know how best to support our hospital. We are incredibly blessed to have a local hospital. Small hospitals don’t make enough to survive without a little help from the taxpayers and doesn’t it make sense that someone who knows the hospital help to direct the money?

If we lose our hospital, it will cost us more than just money to have to go an extra hour to get emergency care. That is why I want to support someone that isn’t interested in litigating and weakening our hospital but supporting local care for local people.
