The LifeStyleRx  gym, which had been losing money, will close April 10 to support a rising volume of patients with specialty care needs, according to the report.

The Livermore campus features a range of services, including diagnostic imaging, a gastroenterology lab, sports medicine, medical offices and urgent care. It also has an ASC, into which Stanford Health Care-ValleyCare is investing $7 million for upgrades.
