    "I had an appointment time set for earlier that morning. I received a phone call asking if I could come 2 1/2 hours later. That was fine, so I arrived later. Then after getting checked in in the exam room, I had a fairly long wait. 45+ minutes before seeing the doctor. I get it that a doctor schedule has to be fairly fluid. It was just a mixed up morning I guess?"

    "I have been with Dr. Sullivan since my family moved to Dubuque in 1997 (and he was probably just out of medical school). It was because of Dr. Sullivan that my prostate cancer was detected early. My PSA had been going up and Dr. Sullivan was watching it carefully and referred me to an oncologist. I subsequently had my prostate removed and I have had negligible yearlyPSA's ever since, and that was over 20 years ago.He very well could've saved my life. And I will always be deeply grateful for that."
