Operation: Get on Dr. Lisa Sanders' Radar (Without Spooking the Attending Physician)
Let's face it, Dr. Lisa Sanders of the New York Times' Diagnosis column is basically a medical Sherlock Holmes. She unravels confounding cases with the panache of a mystery novelist and the expertise of a seasoned physician. So, it's no wonder you might have a medical whodunit that needs her brilliant mind on the case. But how exactly do you crack the code and get in touch with this medical marvel?
Hold Your Horses (Literally and Figuratively)
Before you bombard Dr. Sanders' office with frantic calls (we all know the attending physician life is busy!), there are a few things to consider. Dr. Sanders is an Associate Professor at Yale and most likely has a very active clinical practice. This means getting a personal appointment might be tricky, especially if you're not located near New Haven, Connecticut.
But Fear Not, intrepid patient-citizen journalist! There are still ways to potentially get your case on Dr. Sanders' radar.

Thinking Outside the Box (of Medical Records)
