Our doctors have provided hospital newborn care at Cape Fear Valley Medical Center for several decades. We continued to provide newborn care for an entire year after the hospitalist pediatric provider group began in order to assist the hospital in transitioning to hospitalist led care. We have enjoyed a long and productive relationship with Cape Fear and now must transition to outpatient only care starting November 1, 2024.
