Hints From Heloise

King Features Syndicate

Dear Heloise: I read your column in our Maui News about fax hints and you asked for more hints. I’ve had some medical problems and needed to be in touch with two doctors and the following came to mind.

Many times messages left with the receptionist for a doctor to call you go unheeded. I sent a fax to two doctors I needed to reach on the same day, writing down what I wanted to talk about and questions I wanted answered.

The response in both cases was swift, and the doctors had a chance to think about their answers for me. Fax machines are a great invention! - Maggie Hanusa, Wailuku, Hawaii xxxx
