131103 - Millie submitted ref DIT 1 0001 a letter to Sheidan Tinker at UCSF
131104 - transmitting the record of the meeting with Doctor Benz, and thanking
131105 - Sheridan for her help. The letter also asks that Doctor Benz to
131106 - submit his comments to Millie for distribution rather than to Kaiser.
131107 - The record indicates more needs to be done on holding down costs of
131108 - copying documents. ref SDS 3 L246

131114 - Millie's letter says...
131115 -
131116 - 1. We had an informative meeting today with Doctor Benz, and look
131117 - forward to the report he submits. Since Kaiser is not paying
131118 - for the report, please ask Doctor Benz to send his comments to
131119 - me, and I will make distribution. ref DIT 1 0001
131121 - ..
131122 - 2. Sorry we missed seeing you this morning, as planned in your
131123 - letter on Oct 12. Despite your best efforts, the doctor was
131124 - unable to review case history, ref SDS 3 EN5L, on the Internet,
131125 - which seems strange since UCSF refers patients to the Internet
131126 - routinely. Of course glitches happen no matter how hard
131127 - everyone tries to facilitate efficient, accurate work. Next
131128 - time, maybe someone can call to clear the problem. ref DIT 1

131131 - ..
131132 - 3. Doctor Benz asked for the name of the trial, ref SDS 3 LX47,
131133 - where I get treatment with Avastin. ref DIT 1 J46O Since this
131134 - is part of the case study on the Internet, which the doctor was
131135 - unable to open on his computer, perhaps you could pass along
131136 - information on the trial shown in the record of the meeting at
131137 - Kaiser on 040318. ref SDS 1 DK63
131139 - ..
131140 - 4. Please extend my deepest appreciation to Doctor Benz for
131141 - stepping in and giving my case a once over on short notice; he
131142 - was very effective despite not having the case chronology.

131146 - 5. Thanks too for your help Sheridan. You did a great job
