Fill in the blanks in the following sentence:
The ________ doctor was _______ ________ to operate, because she had _________ ________.
The additional constraints are that the word used to fill in the first blank must be split into two words to fill the blanks after the word was and also split into two, perhaps different, words to fill in the two blanks after the word had. Also no rearrangement of letters is allowed. In each case the two words must be formed only by splitting the word used to fill the first blank.

I haven't come across this one before, but I think I have it!
