pt is scheduled for a "colectomy takedown and reanastomosis" I guess I'll leave it as she says it.

Thanks so much for the help! And just in time, too, I'm just about to send in the report. Much appreciated!

Yeah. I know. 21 of the 25 doctors I routinely transcribe are ESL. It's challenging, to say the least. I was just hoping that someone would recognize the sounds. (I know that sometimes I can, even when reading what someone else heard.)
