<strong>THE FAT MAN, TAKING ANNA BELLE LEWIS TO HIS OFFICE, THEN RUNNING BACK AND FORTH</strong><br/><br/>As the screaming young patient was wheeled out of the elevator, The Fat Man paid attention to where she was clutching herself as she screamed in pain and wheeled her briskly down the hall to his office.<br/><br/><strong>"Hi, I'm Doctor Goldwasser, what's your name? We'll get you something for the pain right away honey, they just want to make sure you aren't intolerant to the drugs when you first arrive before they give you any."</strong><br/><br/>He pushed her inside his office and grabbed a bottle of 15 mg hydrocodone tablets, a bit of a monster dose but very effective in calming and soothing patients in pain of all kinds.<strong>"Here, have some tasty painkillers!"</strong>he smiled, popping a pill between her lips and handing her a glass of water.<br/><br/><strong>"Can you lie down on the examining table please? The pill should start working fast, and I'll get another doctor to help me out while we find out what's wrong with you. I'll be just across the hall in B Ward. Just shout if you need anything, and don't go anywhere!"</strong>he asked, pointing to the examining table beside a cabinet of medical supplies.<br/><br/><strong>"Virginia Dallas! And... Doctor Stanley Adams! I need you in my office right now. Mox Harris! Next admission coming up is all yours, get that LP done and use all the terns you need when he arrives, he's in bad shape,"</strong>he shouted, stepping into B Ward for a moment. Neither seemed to be in the middle of anything too important, and he wanted to give Adams a hands-on lesson to catch up on what he'd missed before he arrived.<br/><br/>Stepping back into his office, he sat down beside the patient and smiled at her, gently taking her hand and squeezing it.<br/><br/><strong>"I hope you're feeling a little better. Before I give you a thorough examination, can you tell me where you can feel the pain in your belly and when it started?"</strong><br/><br/>He took notes and waited for the assistance he'd called in to arrive. Doctor Stanley Adams was about to start his<em>real</em>education. Whoever said being a proctologist and gastroenterologist wasn't fun?
