Review of Medical History

Made me smile and made me mad - a truth-telling piece. Excellent.
Who hasn't faced frustration when dealing with a physician? Communication can be challenging. Mix in legal retraints and you have a recipe for struggle.
I'm not adopted, but I could feel the frustration one would face in such a circumstance.
A provocative and frustrating theme perfectly softened by humor and good pacing.
I'd like to hear more pieces like this on my radio.
