Exile in a Strange Land by Nicolas Augustine Wolfe, Medic
Glancing around the medical facilities of Sonora Academy Nicolas Wolfe grasped his suitcase a bit tighter. It was a far cry from the Munich Magical Maladies Centre where he had been practicing. ‘I doubt I'll have need of their neuro-imaging technology anyhow,' he thought morosely. He was an ocean and half a continent away from his home, in an unfamiliar land populated by what he would consider backwater idiots without the sense to move a more temperate clime.It was all his mother's fault, his mother and that harpy of a wealthy witch. Wolfe felt his face contort into a contemptuous sneer. Why that woman was so interested in him Wolfe would never know. She had hounded him for years now, only to go over his head and arrange a betrothal contract with his parents. And so in his first act of rebellion Nicolas had run away to North America. He had left his home and his work to become a lowly medic at a magical academy. Gone were his cherished sterile, comfortable medical robes. He had nothing to remind him of better days but his medic kit.
‘This place is a dump,' he thought sighing at the work ahead and tugged at the high collar of his shirt. It was just so hot in this place. 'How do they live like this,' he thought growling inwardly. With a few flicks of his wand he had the beds back their rightful state and the supplies stored in a neat and ordered fashion. He just hoped the little morons would have the sense to stay away from the hospital. The very idea of children frightened him; they were loud, dirty, and completely alien. Wolfe's childhood had been spent indoors with his mother's hired tutors and whomever else she thought could teach her only child how to be a true gentleman and wizard. He was a far cry from home.

Greeting oh new one by Stephen Baxter
The word was out - apparently Doc had gone and run off, and there was a new guy in the infirmary. And what with Marnett returning, well... Stephen had come to the conclusion that it was all linked. Marnett left, Plant-Dude left too... and then Doc leaves and they come back. Obviously Doc's interest in Tony's girlfriend had driven the plant away, but now that Doc was gone ... well...Coming up to the doors, he pushed them open and clomped into the hospital wing. Obviously the place looked better than it had last year, when it had been all-bar destroyed by the weather. Papp had done a good job cleaning the place up; it looked quite like its old self these days.
"Hey," he greeted the new guy. "You the new nurse?"
