It was only kinda shown, but part of the reason the doctor arrived so late/why Winry had to help deliver the baby was the storm had knocked out the bridge, so Dominic basically had to take the long way around. In fact, in the manga (and idk why the anime cut it cause it was a good scene) Ed tried to use alchemy to build a bridge across but couldn't (no supports under the bridge meant eventually it just got to heavy and broke under its own weight). A further driving point of 'all this power of an alchemist and [Ed] can't do anything'. Also, Dominic and Pinako (Winry's grandma) have some kind of history together and he is terrified of her haha (iirc he called her something like "the Pantheress of Resembool").
