End of an Era: Overland Medical Center to Closed

This may be a scoop for OVCC, since I have yet to see this in the Suburban Journals or the Post-Dispatch. Or, discussed in a City Council meeting, either.

Overland Medical Center, the multi-specialty medical facility in the heart of Overland, will be closing its door on August 1. A doctor's office in every specialty--plus a Medicine Shoppe Pharmacy (which will probably stay unless something non-medical completely takes over the building)--it filled the medical needs of the community from birth to grave.

It's a loss for Overland, not so much in tax revenue, but in needed services for the residents. Tis a sad day.
