Nine anesthesiologists at Auburn Community Hospital are resigning after their chief was fired, according to The Post Standard.
The group is walking out in solidarity with Dr. Xi Yang, who reportedly clashed with orthopedic surgeon and hospital executive Dr. Daniel Alexander. Despite the departures, the hospital says surgeries are continuing as scheduled with full staffing.
The resignations mark a major shake-up in the hospital’s surgical team — and highlight growing internal tensions.
