Our attending for the month, Phyllis Kroll, was a seasoned general Internal Medicine faculty member and long time “friend” of my mother. She was an attractive, middle-aged blonde and married to the Dean of the medical school. Phyllis was on the board of director’s with my mother and Melvin Porter. My mother often told me that if Phyllis ever finally came out of her deep closet, she might be a nicer person. Apparently they had some history from their college days. My mother never fully spoke of it, but periodically would joke about being a “hasbian”. I suspect from their love-hate relationship, Phyllis might have been her partner hasbian. It was a bit nerve wracking to start my medical career with her as my attending. She was tough on us and I felt she was toughest on me. It was almost as though I needed to prove my worthiness to be there.
She, like so many others, believed the only reason I got a position at the Peabody Clinic was because of my name. My uncle running around telling everyone about what a force we would be when I joined him in Cardiology practice did not help with this image problem at all. I constantly heard from the other residents that the highly sought after Cardiology fellowship position already had my name on it. I felt there was no truth to this but perception was everything and I constantly had to prove myself. This was especially true with Dr Kroll. As demanding as we thought Tina was on us for morning rounds, she was simply getting us ready for the often brutal attending rounds with Dr Kroll. This was usually a painful learning experience. Someone would be brought to tears almost daily, as she found reason to chew them a new asshole. Jenny was particularly susceptible to her rants and rages. After a few days of rounding with her, I knew I had to buff up my medical students to make them shine and bring on my A-game. She was very difficult to please. It seemed Dr Kroll had it out for me simply because my name was Peabody. At times I thought she was evil personified.
Me, I’m Helena Peabody, the nearly 25 year old heiress to the Peabody fortune. Despite what Bette, Stan, Sean or Jay might have thought about themselves, I was the real star of this year. All eyes were on me, to sink or swim. It was my year to redeem myself in my mother’s eyes and to figure out who I was, and I how would fit in, in this vast Peabody empire.

Okay S, I see a bit of Grey’s here,,lol. I am liking how you described all of the characters and its a good start!
Thanks for comment Patpez…This story might resemble Scrubs, ER, Grey’s anatomy, etc but will reflect real people and real events I came across when I was a resident. I will try to balance the real medical facts and events with some L-word drama and characters. I rarely watch those shows, so any similarity will be entirely coincidencal. Thank’s for reminding me about that disclaimer.
woop woop…Sorry bit excited about the new story Squirl.Loving how Helena is so confident but in a different way she has a slight twist to her personality that i like.Keep up the good work
I do believe you are going to have a big winner here. Bette is straight? Tina is Bi and our Shane is still our Shane. thanks
I love the start of the fresh story Squirl. But wow, my girl Bette is straight? Can’t wait to see where you take that one, my interest is so highly peeked! I agree with bettyvhall, you have a winner here, looking forward to the next chapter. PPS!
really liked the bios and the diversity of your crew…this ought to bring about very interesting conversation!! Can’t wait to read the next post!!!
Finally caught up and I love it! A wonderful cast of characters…..great potential dynamics…sooo many paths we can go…Out of curiosity, will Alice peek her head in from time to time? And oooo, true personal stories you say (change the names, Jenny! lol! )? I’m so looking forward to where you will take us! I too am frightened by Shane the Anesthesiologist! lol! PPS!
I too wonder if the anesthesiologist at my hospital are on there own meds lol. great story
OMG! You made Bette straight??? Sheesh! Well ignore the comment I put on chapter 4 — no RILF for Helena. I just want it known that not all psychiatrists and mental health professionals are crazy like Jenny. While I can definitely see the fit, it just plugs that stereotype that I find so frustrating. I think my GI specialist is the scope for money type. That had me LOL! Okay, now the subsequent chapters make more sense. So Tina is bi — I wonder where that might lead.
Interesting start–I’m looking forward to where this story goes from here!
Spoofing Grey’s… i like it~
oooooohhhhh very interesting Squirl. I can’t wait to see where this is headed. Dylan didn’t make the cut for the Peabody Clinic?! I sniff back tears as I imagine the steamy broom closet scenes that she and Helena could have had together during breaks, lol. I wonder if Bette will still be straight by the end of the year. Great start, looking forward to the next chapter.
Holy sheet count Dr., sorry for the delay, you diplaced my favorite player of all time put her conter part in LA and the reason for her being replace in my neighborhood, Cleveland of all the places she could have gone, why my friend, well I though you were my friend, in Cleveland????????? This shall be very intresting, is Helena going to get stright Bette to bend? Is stright Bette going to stop by biland w/Tina first? Is Tina going to Stright Bette to bend and Helena is going to steel her away? Is Tina going to get stright Bette to bend and Helena is going to steal Tina away and leave Bette in bendy land for evermore? Oh the place this will take us. Take us away Squirl as only you can. Thank you, Md
P.S. Hope that health is still progressing.
Well. As I’m currently living near Cleveland, yes the Clinic is one of the world’s best hospitals and Cleveland is one dreary place live. I wonder if winter is any nicer up at the Mayo Clinic. Tell me, did Dylan do something to piss you off? Jenny seems a natural to go into Psychiatry. The prospect of Shane in anesthesiology is frightening. Even with the back story and the potential income (not many emergency pages in the middle of the night, either), I’m disappointed that Bette choose Dermatology. I’ve known some internists to sneer just a little at the field. Interesting set up.
