Thank you @Evan_Low for your leadership and dedication to patients and their doctors!
I will work with the @SCCgov and @VPGphysicians on reforms so our most vulnerable patients get high quality care from physicians who are supported and respected.

We're not backing down—VPG physicians are united in our demand for dignity and respect. Learn more about our campaign and how @SCCGov can step up for #HealthcareHeroes in our county. bit.ly/3SzpN0l
✊The Valley Physicians Group is getting strike ready. We need *you* with us.
Together, we can show @SCCGov that we will continue to fight for quality patient care, for better working conditions, and for this community.

The Valley Physicians Group is fighting for quality patient care. For fair treatment. For better working conditions. For our patients. For Santa Clara County.
💪🏼Together, we are #VPGStrong.
What's holding back quality patient care in Santa Clara?
🥼 Short staffing
⌛ Unsafe workloads
🚧 Systemic barriers
It's time for @SCCGov to prioritize lifelines over their bottom lines and listen to physicians. #VPGStrong
Thank you @Evan_Low for standing up for patient care and Santa Clara County's dedicated physicians.
Patient care AND physician wellness in our county are both critical issues to be addressed. I have full confidence that our county board of supervisors will do all that they can to avert a strike and demonstrate that health care workers are truly valued.

We agree with @SupEllenberg and already did what she recommended in this @SJSpotlight story by submitting a clear written proposal aimed at resolving critical working condition issues that are harming patient care. We are still waiting for a written proposal from @SCCgov....

A huge crowd of @VPGphysicians doctors is rallying in front of VMC to announce a strike notice coming early Nov. This comes after roughly two years of stalled negotiation. The doctors have been working without a contract for more than 18 months. Story TK @SJSpotlight
BREAKING: Santa Clara County physicians issue a 10-day strike notice.
We urge you to contact the board of supervisors - @Mike__Wasserman, @SupOttoLee, @SupEllenberg, @joesimitian - and tell them to stand with county physicians for quality patient care.

Share your concerns. We're so grateful to our healthcare professionals for getting us through COVID. Time to show it with better work conditions and fair treatment.

I am concerned about the working conditions in the SCC Health & Hosp System. Short-staffing and heavy patient loads are bad for patients and bad for doctors. After 2 years working through the pandemic w/o a contract, I hope that @VPGphysicians’ concerns are addressed.
Doctors in Santa Clara County's public health and hospital system overwhelmingly authorized a strike.
