I saw Dr. Bodor twice. Both times my health—and, as a result, my life— was in crisis. Both times she hardly knew me, yet did all she could to help. The first time, she had taken over the practice of my previous primary care just as I was changing medical groups (leaving her care). The second time, I was in the process of leaving California, with a serious spine condition. Her response on both occasions was full-out attention, compassion, concern, and helpfulness. She is a lovely, lovely person, the kind of doctor everyone hopes to find. I was very sorry that my relationship with her was, of necessity, so fleeting. In two very bad moments in my life, she was there for me.
