S. QUALITY ING A GREAT DOCTOR

EMBRACING WORD-OF-MOUTH WISDOM When researching a doctor or specialist in your area, it is wise to explore online reviews or news articles that may shed light on other patients’ experiences. If you uncover one or more negative

reviews, check if their office responded to the critique — and pay attention to the tone and level of professionalism they used. Of course, nothing beats feedback from friends or relatives who have used the doctor’s services. If someone you know had an uncomfortable experience or had cause to pursue a legal claim, that is a clear sign that you should consider taking your business elsewhere. While we never want to see anyone endure medical malpractice, we are here and committed to helping you if you do. Please contact us today if you need to pursue a case of this nature or have any questions or concerns we can address.

However, users should always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for which materials to use on a particular model and how often to replace the filter. Always rinse the humidifier thoroughly after cleaning, as cleaning chemicals may become airborne if not disposed of correctly. SAFEGUARD YOUR SPACE HEATERS. Space heaters may offer a practical way to add warmth to specific spots in your home, but they pose significant safety risks. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends keeping space heaters at least three feet away from flammable materials, such as drapes, bedding, and furniture. Ensure the heater’s cord is not a tripping hazard, and never run it under rugs or carpets. Avoid using extension cords, and do not use a space heater with a cord with clear signs of damage.

DIRECTIONS 1. Season chicken with salt and pepper. In an 8-quart stockpot over medium-high heat, add oil and chicken and cook until golden brown, 3–4 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside. 2. Add onion to drippings; cook over medium-high heat for 4–5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add broth and bring to a boil. Return chicken to pot. Add celery, carrots, bay leaves, and thyme. Reduce heat and cover; simmer until chicken is tender, 25–30 minutes. 3. Turn off heat. Remove chicken to a plate. Add noodles and let stand, covered, until noodles are tender, 20–22 minutes. 4. Shred chicken meat into bite-size pieces, and return to pot. Stir in parsley and lemon juice, and discard bay leaves. 3
