Clinic Hours - Thursday January 12, 2006

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Wilson whistled softly as he walked about getting the Clinic opened up for the day. He was anticipating a delivery of supplies and so was dressed a little more casually than usual in jeans, a t-shirt and a flannel shirt under his pristine lab coat.

He'd been in Fandom for going on four months and had finally settled into the routine of lugging his own supplies and other wise handling details of a medical facility that he'd had orderlies and nurses to cover over the past couple decades. It was rather nice to be back into the habit and to know he still remembered the 'basic's' so to speak.

There was coffee brewing in the waiting room, though Wilson himself was enjoying a cup of tea as he sat behind the front desk, reading an oncology journal and waiting for the back door to buzz.

Doctor is In, come have coffee, bleed, emo all of the above!

Indeed coffee and as he became aware that someone appeared to be eyeing it, Wilson looked up with a warm smile.

"Good morning. Can I help you?"

Nadia smiled back. "Hi. Um, I just need a wrap for my ankle. And maybe some ibuprofen."

Dark eyebrows arched up towards his hairline and the smile grew as he stood up.

"And what have you done to your ankle that needs a wrap?"

Nadia shrugged. "Self-defense club last night. Kinda twisted my ankle during the fight. It's not bad or anything, but it kinda hurts, so I figured I'd just wrap it up."

Giving a nod, Wilson began to move towards one of the exam rooms. "Come on back, I'll take a look and get it strapped up for you. Self-defense club?"

Nadia limped after Wilson. "Yeah. I figured it'd be a good group to join around here."

Leaning down to push a stool over towards the edge of the exam bed so she wouldn't need to strain her leg getting up on the bed, Wilson stepped back to give Nadia room.

"It...ah...well." Wilson stumbled a bit over his words, thinking that so many of the dangers around Fandom were so far beyond you basic physical combat skills it was frightening but he didn't want to scare Nadia so instead he smiled and nodded. "Well, it's at least a good way to meet your fellow students. Have you been to the clinic before?"

Nadia climbed up on the bed bed and held out her injured ankle. She noted Wilson's search for words, but figured he was just trying to promote anti-violence. "Nope. I'm usually pretty healthy."

Smiling with a nod Wilson curbed the urge to respond that Fandom would soon take care of that and he walked over to pull a blank chart from the desk.

"Okay, while I check out your ankle I need you to fill this out." It was your standard form...

Name
Age
Known allergies
Species.

Nadia took the card and glanced it over. She blinked at the last question. Of course, at this school? That was probably a fair question. She quickly filled it out.

Name: Nadia Santos
Age: 15
Known allergies:

Nadia thought about that one. How the heck was she supposed to explain the Rambaldi thing? After a moment she wrote:

Known allergies: Rambaldi elixer (I don't know what's in it. it's green)
Species: human

She set the card aside to watch as Wilson examined her ankle.

He did this with a gentle but clinical expertise, testing the flexibility and also the integrity of bone with a few key presses of his long fingers.

"I could x-ray it but I'm fairly confident that you've only wrenched it fairly impressively and soft tissue wounds are notoriously more vindictive then actual breaks. Have you been keeping it iced and elevated?"

Nadia blinked. "I didn't know I was supposed to. I just figured, you know, ankle hurts, you wrap it up, eventually it doesn't hurt any more."
