Lieutenant Jack Kessler - An Apple a day keeps the Doctor away

((Sickbay, Deck 5, U.S.S. Octavia E. Butler))
Along with talking to the Intelligence Officer, Promontory had made it clear that Jack also get a release from the ships medical department and of course a psych release. This was standard protocol for what Jack had gone though and although he hated jumping through the hoops to get reinstated, he also understood that this was the process. So he would follow protocol and jump through the hoops, get his job back and then get to work.
Like everything on this new ship the sickbay was state of the art. A formal reception area led to the triage hub, a circular room with three biobeds. A pair of doors on opposing sides of the room led into the deeper inner working of sickbay but today Jack did not find himself venturing past the exam room. The reception nurse had escorted him to a biobed and then departed to find Doctor Toz. It was not long before the Doctor entered the room. A familiar face from the Oumuamua, Doctor Toz was a human/Klingon hybrid and seeing her Jack smiled from ear to ear.
Kessler: Hey doc, happy to see you.
Toz: response
Kessler: Doing better than I think most think I should be. How have you been.
Jack hopped up on the biobed as the Doctor spoke and he watched each of her actions.
Toz: response
Kessler: That’s good. I guess you have your hands full now with Doctor Kel gone.
Jack was still somewhat irritated that his best friend Dr. V’Len Kel had transferred to another ship while Jack was gone. In his mind, this was something he would have to rectify soon, somehow.
Toz: response
Kessler: No, I am fine but Commander Promontory wants a full medical work up to make sure I am really ok to return to duty. (beat rolling his eyes) You know, protocol and all that stuff.
Toz: response
Jack cracked a smile at the comment and knew he was in good hands with his Doctor.
