Now where did I put those kidney beans? Oh, hello. I didn't see you there.

My name is Dr. Sophia and I am a doctor. In case you were wondering why I was looking for kidney beans, those are one of my supplies. I just got a headache, so I need some kidney beans to make it go away. I have tons of supplies starting off with native plants, powerful drugs, and potions. If a patient has rheumatism I give them a poultice. A poultice is a mixture of mustard and herbs. Some other supplies are juice of tobacco and meat of walnut.

An Indian medicine man is an Indian that says prayers. He also heals people. If the people don't want to come to the doctor they can go to the Indian medicine man.

I did have apprentices but they went back to England for their degrees. An apprentice is a person that works with you, like an assistant. Apprentices help me do things like mix potions. Apprentices help me because some day they would like to become a doctor.

Those were some things about me and I hope you liked it.
