We extend our deepest condolences to Dr. Groff’s family, friends, patients, and to the many colleagues who had the privilege of working with him.

This is a profound loss for our health system and the broader medical community.

Like many others nationwide, RRH is facing an IV fluid shortage due to Hurricane Helene's impact on Baxter's NC facility.

Despite this, we are maintaining current procedures and patients should plan on receiving care as usual unless otherwise notified.
