CORNWALL – The Cornwall Community Hospital has added three new doctors to its roster.

Drs. Miriam Ghaley, Aaron Sweeney and Jon Tran have joined the team at the McConnell Avenue health care facility, CCH announced Monday.

Ghaley and Tran both grew up in Cornwall while Sweeney is from Montreal.

CEO Jeanette Despatie says they are delighted to add the three to the emergency department and “they bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to our team.”

The hospital notes it still has to recruit more doctors, especially for the ER.

CCH deals with around 140 patients a day in its emergency department.
