The White House doctor spends more time around the First Patient in one day than many of us get with our family physicians over years.While serving two Bushes and one Clinton, Dr. Connie Mariano was part of the "secure package" that would accompany the President at nearly all times outside the White House. As a result she got to see if her patients were or were not following her medical advice.
She also had to be prepared to provide trauma care at a moment's notice and, in one instance, had to facilitate the gathering of evidence for a federal prosecution.
