Hospital officials said the change does not affect patients receiving care through other pediatric or obstetric care services provided through Ascension St. John Children’s Hospital or the Ascension St. John Birthing Center.

“We are working with the four associates dedicated to the practice to determine potential opportunities for transitioning to other positions and sites of care across Ascension St. John,” the hospital said.
Ascension St. John Hospital is part of St. Louis-based Ascension.
