The medical center will now direct patients seeking these services to Somers Point, N.J.-based Shore Medical Center and Atlantic City, N.J.-based Atlanticare, Cape Regional Health System said in an Aug. 30 press release. 

All obstetricians in Cape May Court House currently offer services at one of those two facilities.
