Gladys was one of the first female doctors at Good Samaritan. But no one could convince the doctors' parking lot guard that she and her fellow female docs were indeed doctors.
It's 1957 and Gladys sets the scene: "Good Samaritan Hospital had a parking lot for the doctors and they had a guard standing there at the gate and he wouldn't let us park there. He just didn't get it that there were women doctors. And he was huge, I mean he was one of these giants. And he would stand there and we’d come in and try swinging our stethoscopes. We'd swing our purses and hang our stethoscopes out for him to see them but he wouldn’t let us through.
"Finally Betty Kilpatrick, who was a family doc and about five-feet tall and came up to his umbilicus, had it with him!
"The guard says, 'You can't park here.'
And she says 'Yes, I can.'
And he says 'No, you can't.'
"So she began pounding her stethoscope on his belly and he can't see what's going on down there and she said there are 15 female doctors in Phoenix.
“He never stopped us from parking in the doctors' parking lot after that.”
