Affiliate Marketing Secrets

my mother had a colonoscopy and afterwards her doctor told her she needed surgery. she told my mom she should 1st get medically cleared by a doctor affiliated with that hospital she was going to have the surgery. so my mom found a doctor affiliated with that hospital and got checked up. she was fine to have the surgery. that doctor faxed over everything to the surgeon’s office. the surgeon called my mom and said she got the forms and she needs to just make an appointment with her receptionist in which she did. the receptionist called my mom regarding the appointment for her surgery. she got a letter today stating the time and what she needs to do. in that letter it said she needs to be medically cleared by the clinic in that hospital. the doctors office is closed right now so i will call tomorrow to ask, but i wanted to know now, if she needs TWO clearances. she got the 1st clearance about 3 weeks ago. is it just a mistake?
