In 1998, R’ Sholom Schwadron visited London and delivered a speech in a beis medrash in Stamford Hill based on the Ramban in Parshas Bechukosai. He spoke passionately about how people run to doctors when they should first turn to Hashem. Afterward, he asked if anyone could give him a ride. R’ Kalman Knopfler offered, and when he learned that R’ Schwadron wanted to go to Golders Green to visit Dr. Adler, he was surprised. After a speech criticizing people for first running to doctors, R’ Schwadron himself was going to a doctor! R’ Schwadron responded, “Dr. Adler is not a doctor. He is a malach—an angel.”
