Great story with a huge plot hole... If it's Winter in Princeton (North Hemisphere) means it must be Summer in Antarctica.
If it was Summer in Antarctica - she could have been Evacuated easily. The weather/wind conditions described in the episode give the impression it's Winter in Antarctica - not possible seeing as it's Snowing in the Winter of Princeton...
Now if it was July and she needed Rescuing - it'd have been almost impossible.
Small but simple mistake, granted - but discounts the entire reasoning for the remote diagnosis & dangerous procedures.
Still a high quality episode though - I just couldn't get over the plot hole.
