Update: Swedish West Seattle reconnected, doctor reports

9:41 AM: If you’ve been having trouble getting through to the Swedish clinic in West Seattle, Dr. Tom Erdmann sent this note explaining what’s going on:

Swedish West Seattle has been experiencing phone connectivity issues since late 1/14/2015. We have no outgoing message. The busy signal is due to the phone outage. Repairs are underway but no estimate is available as to when phones will be restored. The clinic is open. If needed, please walk in for an urgent appointment.

10:57 AM: Per Dr. Erdmann’s comment, this has been solved. Also note, in a separate situation/location, Sound PT‘s problem, lingering from Tuesday’s Andover crash.

    The phone service and Internet at sound physical therapy has been intermittent since 1/13 when a driver on Andover took out a century link substation .
    Our fax line is down as well

      Yes, we’ve covered that separately. Any ETA from CL yet? Even their crew on scene, as reported in our story the other night when photojournalist Christopher Boffoli went back over, thought it would be days rather than hours, unfortunately. – TR

    Btw: Dr Erdmann is the best doctor I’ve had in my 40 years. I drive in from Bellevue to see him after I moved from W Seattle!

Sorry, comment time is over.
