Here is some more of the article:

Nordyke, in a Friday telephone interview with The Daily Republic, said the birthers have consistently discounted her testimony. She is certain they are wrong.

A birther claim that Obama was born in Kenya, she said, is “just a myth. It’s not true at all.”

Nordyke, a longtime friend and Stanford University classmate of Mitchell resident Kathryn Crockett, said the birther issue has been “a broil in Hawaii for the past two years.” Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle on Thursday signed legislation designed to limit requests for Obama’s birth documents. That move has only outraged birthers.

Hawaii officials have repeatedly confirmed Obama’s citizenship, saying they have seen his birth certificate.

Hawaii law prevents the release of full “long form” birth information to anyone but family members, Nordyke said, “so for the birthers to keep clamoring for it is ridiculous.” She said the leaders of the birther movement are using the false claims to reap financial gain.

Nordyke said Obama’s birth notices appeared in the Aug. 13, 1961, Honolulu Advertiser and Honolulu Star-Bulletin.

She recalls that Obama’s birth notice was published several days before her daughters’ notice, even though Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, was admitted to Kapiolani Hospital after Nordyke entered the hospital. Obama was born on a Friday, and the Nordyke twins were born on a Saturday, she said.

Nordyke’s late husband, Dr. Robert Nordyke, was an internal medicine specialist at Honolulu’s Straub Clinic.

“My daughters’ birth certificates were 10637 and 10638, and Obama’s was 10641, so his mother must have come in after I did,” Nordyke said, though she never met Obama’s mother.

Nordkye said she doesn’t know who Obama’s mother’s doctor was, but only five obstetricians were at the hospital at the time, she said. Birthers have complained that the name of the attending physician is being hidden.

For about six years, Nordyke’s daughters attended school with Obama at the Punahou School, a school of about 4,000 geared for the college-bound, which Nordyke called “the best school in Hawaii.”

*******

The 5 Kapiolani Hospital Obstetricians: If a good investigative reporter could find the names of those five obstetricians, we might be able to find out if Obama was or was not born in that hospital afterall.

As I see it, those 5 doctors could be the key to this Obama birth certificate controversy because I believe that they are NOT bound by privacy laws when they say something like the following: "yes, I delivered Obama" or "No, I did not deliver Obama.", but I know who did."

Tracking down those 5 doctors and their families would be a great historical event for some brave and skilled investigative reporter, I believe.

Does anyone have the names of those 5 obstetricians? If we could finally find their names, that would be a great find of enormous historical significance, in my opinion.
