Meanwhile, I know a lady who went for her first "routine" checkup in a long time a few years ago. The doctor was very concerned. He got her in for tests, and she was on the table for major cancer surgery within the week. That probably meant that someone else had to wait a day or so longer - but it was the doctors' judgment that they could afford to, and this lady clearly couldn't.
