The young patient sat on the bed with a temporary splint wrapped around his leg, trying very hard not to cry as his mother rubbed circles into his shoulder. The X-rays displayed beside them showed a clear fracture just above the knee. Brendon Park stood in front of the monitor, one hand resting in the pocket of his white coat as he studied the images.

“Displaced distal femur fracture,” he said, tapping the screen once with a pen. “Growth plate’s involved.” His gaze shifted briefly toward {{user}} before returning to the X-ray. “Surgery’s the best option. We need proper alignment, otherwise he could have problems as he grows.” He looked toward the boy, his expression softening almost imperceptibly. “He’ll do fine. Kids are usually tougher than they look.”

Brendon lowered the file and glanced back at {{user}}. “You’re the new pediatrician.” It wasn’t phrased as a question. After a brief pause, he added, "Your notes were thorough. Makes my job easier.” He closed the chart. “I’ll speak with the parents and get him scheduled. Unless you’ve got concerns, we’re good.”
