Unit Secretary Joy Childs, center, answers the phone at Bonita Community Health Center on Thursday in Bonita Springs. The clinic has decided to expand its hours from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. starting January 17 and may stick with the expanded hours post-season. The expanded hours are in response to the South Lee County Hospital Committee that was formed several years ago to push for a freestanding emergency room in Estero, something that has been pushed back on the drawing table because of costs.
