Albert Lea citizens concerned about Mayo Clinic’s decision to transition most inpatient services to Austin have taken to social media.

“Albert Lea-Save Our Hospital” members are urging Mayo Clinic leaders to keep the full-service hospital in Albert Lea.

“This is about caring for our family, friends and neighbors,” said Jennifer Vogt-Erickson, vice chairwoman of public relations for the organization, in a press release.
