“My comments about the difficulty...”

My comments about the difficulty getting an appointment to see Dr Mandel and the fact she was late for the appointment, have to do with the fact she is a surgeon and is in surgery much of the time. She is also an attending physician at the hospital and a teacher, so her time to see patients in the office is very limited. However, she is in such demand because she is an excellent surgeon, and she is the one I have chosen to do my gallbladder surgery. She is the surgeon who helps save my life in September at Swedish Hospital. She is wonderful! Brilliant! And I trust her completely!
