Medical Check-up

Posted on Wed May 6th, 2015 @ 4:16am by Lieutenant & Captain Brenda Sinclair

Mission: Debts to be settled......
Location: Main Sickbay

ON

Staring at the door, Brenda tried to channel all of her hatred and loathing into that one single glare, as though with a look alone, she could incinerate the doors, and the room beyond. One thing she hated, above all others was medical check-ups.

Doctors always had some comment to make. Lose a few pounds, or tighten muscle tone, watch the carbs, drink less coffee. She wasn't in danger of dropping dead, so the danger - so far as she could see - was hardly worth mentioning.

Rules, however, were rules. With a sigh, she stepped forward, the sickbay doors parting. "Anyone home?" The light accent of her home highlighting her words.

Antos peered around the corner from a back closet. "Well! Hello there! Please take a seat on the main bio bed I will be right there." Antos said quickly as his head disappeared back into the closet. as he finished organizing it. "Hello again! I am so sorry for the delay." as he walked out of the closet and the door closed behind him. As he walked up to her realizing the rank. "Sir! My apologizes!" Antos said quickly. As he waited for a response before moving again. Now noticing she was a marine not star fleet but it did not matter to him she earned her rank just like everyone else. He was going to treat here with that respect.

Brenda waved his apology away with a hand. "No need for the 'Sir', we're both O-3's here, Lieutenant." She eased herself onto the biobed, resting both hands on a knee. "I've come for the mandatory physical, so I can be cleared for duty."

"I see Miss Sinclair!" Antos said with a small smile. He decided to try a bit more informal approach to her and her physical exam. as he grabbed his tricorder that laded on the tray next to the instruments. He flipped it open quietly as he started his series of scans. as the master monitor started to display her vitals and the scans directly to the monitor. as the computer started processing the information it was being given. "The exam may take a bit longer then normal Miss Sinclair due to no staff other then an emh. but i try not to use them if there is no other choice."

"Is there anything that needs to be added to you medical record that has not been added?" he asked while he continued to scan her. then stopped and tapped a few keys next to the master display then returned to scanning where he left off. "what I am seeing from the scans look great. nothing to worry about." Antos said with a smile as he waited for Captain Sinclair to answer.

"Not unless you count a Scottish temper medically relevant." Brenda offered with a smile. She knew that not all doctors were the same, but her experiences thus far had been... less than par. This though was proving to be an interesting meeting. He was competent, obviously. Friendly, and not chiding her. That was always a bonus.

"Other then a warning maybe other then that no," Antos said with a small laugh. "All is great Captain Sinclair your cleared for duty." Antos said with a polite smile. "I hope see you around sometime."

"You'll forgive me if I don't hope to be back here soon." She offered with a smile as she slid off the bed. "While this doctor seemed pleasant enough, he was still a doctor. That meant illness or injury. Neither was something a Marine hoped for.

"Understood Captain Sinclair good bye!" Antos said with dismay.
