Currier has already received special accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act for dyslexia and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, including being granted permission to take the test over two days instead of one.

I had a bit of sympathy for the woman until reading this point. A dyslexic physician? I have a hard enough time reading their orders and notes as it is. If she is using dyslexia as a disability, then I am frightened by the possibility of transposed letters and digits for medication orders, etc.

...dyslexic physician...

Sounds like she's pretty close to the theoretical "blind jeweler."
