      I've been Dr Gottschalk's patient for nearly 15 years. She's one of the best family care physicians I've ever seen - except Dr Connie Jennings who is the same type of caring person.

      Most of the specific tests wouldn't work on the instrument because my hands and body were too cold to register : oxygen level ,temperature, , blood pressure etc. She identified the problem quickly and waited until oI warmed up
