This one was tough for me, but I got there in the end.

Time to check out other solutions to see how I could have done it better!

My results - concatenated Doctor's with multiple specialties (yellow highlight) and stripped out unnecessary white space (peach highlight)

Felt like a bit of a hack, curious to see what the solution is!

I'm not matching on everything, but when looking at the expected solution vs mine, I think I'm possibly more accurate in some instances?

For example, the solution provided has Alan Bielsky's practice as 'Anesthesiology', but it looks like in the html it's actually 'Pediatric Anesthesiology'...  Other examples as well, not necessarily the same type of issue, but for the handful that I compared I'm comfy with my solution :)

Here is my solution. As @brianprestidge pointed out, I think the output provided in the start file is incorrect on line 649. Other than that, matches exactly!

Solution attached. Similar to @Joe_Mako, I included all Practices (multiple <h5> tags) for each physician.

Fun to muck around with HTML web scraping.

I spend some time realizing that record 649 is corrupt as also suggested by a few posts.

Probably not the most smooth solution out there, but it works :)
