Her care afterwards was also outstanding.

I called Dr. Eckert to tell her I thought I had a bladder infection and was in some discomfort. She said, Go immediately to the emergency, tell them you think you are having an appendicitis attack. Do not mention bladder infection at all. I followed her instructions, they immediately did a scan and reported, It is about to blow.
Had we started with my suggested bladder infection they would have fiddled around, possibly long enough that the appendix would have burst. Her care afterwards was also outstanding.
