Bennie was administering an anti-histamine to a patient who had come in with an allergic reaction to her new perfume, when a tall, attractive man in the teal of medical/science walked in through the doors.

“Alright,” she said to the women on the biobed. “I want you to stay here for 15 minutes to make sure the medicine takes effect. Get comfortable and I’ll check back in a couple of minutes.” The patient nodded.

The CMO turned to the newcomer who was looking at all the people working there. “Hi, may I help you?”

She saw his eyes dart to her collar and the pips fastened there. “Lt Royce?” Bennie nodded. “Hello, I am Lt(jg) Clint Beaujay, newly assigned to the USS Olinski. I believe you are my new boss.” His smile was dazzling and the French accent wasn’t bad either.

“Really? I wasn’t aware we were getting someone new today. Follow me to my office and we’ll get sorted out. Okay?” As they walked across the bay, Bennie looked at one of the medics on duty and motioned over her shoulder to the patient she’d given the anti-histamine to. They were going to take over for her there.

The Captain showed up for his yearly physical. He usually did not avoid these like the psych one he avoided. After all he was in good physical shape and exercised normally.

“Dr. Royce I am here for my physical.” He said as he found and then approached the CMO.

Bennie paused at the sound of Sidney’s voice, then shooed Beaujay into her office to wait while she saw the Captain. With some surprise in her smile, she then turned to Parker. “Welcome to Sickbay, Sir. If you’ll have a seat on one of the beds, I’ll take care of that for you.”

“By all means Dr.” The Captain said and did so.

“Dr. I know I have not had the time for us to talk That’s an oversight on my part. I believe the CMO is a key part of the leadership team and I want to express that to you.”

Better late than never, Bennie thought. She raised her tricorder and began scanning. “Thank you, Captain. I realize your job is very demanding and time consuming though. I’m sure if Sickbay had had a problem that required your attention, we would have seen or heard from you at that time. Luck for us things have been running like clockwork.” She smiled at the CO to take any sting out of her words.

“So, tell me, have you been in good health since your last physical?”
