I had a great morning. Access-a-Ride arrived 30 minutes early, and I was both surprised and unprepared. By the time I got in the car, it was the time he was due: 9:45. It took 15 minutes to get to East 95th Street, so I arrived at my appointment an hour earlier than scheduled. I was seen almost immediately. So, I saw Dr Saltzman, the gastroenterologist, answered all her questions, told her the reasons I was seeing her, and when I shut up, she said "You had a stomach virus." She wants me to have a couple of tests, and that was it. I liked her very much.
