Queenstown, Southland and Central Otago communities are set to benefit from Pacific Radiology’s new purpose-built imaging facility currently under construction at Kawarau Park along Frankton’s Five Mile Highway.
Located next door to the new Southern Cross surgical hospital (nearing completion) the Pacific Radiology facility will offer local patients, doctors, physiotherapists, midwives, chiropractors, hospital specialists and all leading health referrers, with local access to the very latest in high-tech imaging, diagnostic and interventional procedures.

The conservative guest editorial apologist for The Union, Terry McLaughlin, suggests a false equivalency between the Black Lives Matter protests and the violent attempt by a Trump mob to overthrow American democracy during the usually peaceful process of transferring presidential power to a duly elected president-elect.
This was not a demonstration. It was an insurgency with the stated goal of destroying our government by force. Thugs, men and women alike, came with guns, pipe bombs, sledge hammers, climbing ropes, and for a short time shut down the Capitol, leaving our representatives sheltering for their lives.
Because the insurgents were so inept, they finally failed. Because the Capitol Police were so inept, they got as far as they did. Five people are dead as a result, and our country is forever besmirched.
Each week we’ll run through the sublime, the trivial and profound issues, decisions and goings on that strike us as Hits or Misses. You can join in, too, by emailing your Hits & Misses to editboard@theunion.com.
Hit (from reader Richard Noelle): to Century 21 Cornerstone Realty for making a $1,000 each donation to: Bright Futures for Youth; Child Advocates of Nevada County; Fire Safe Council of Nevada County; Hospice of the Foothills; KARE Crisis Nursery.
Miss (from reader Elsie Durgin): to her experience with Hospice of the Foothills after reading Terry McLaughlin’s laudatory column Dec. 17 about her experience with the organization. Durgin said her family and family member’s experience was different, and recommends Interim Hospice of Grass Valley.
