House on the mountain. A story with unusual ending

“Aimee Jones, head physician at the Oldwood Medical Hospital,” she said.

– Very nice.

They shook hands. Amy asked Dan about how he got there, whether he likes the city and what he thinks about the hospital. Dan replied that he was satisfied with everything. Then Amy Jones told him about the hospital, about his history. It turns out that it was built in the 18th century! And the appearance of the building so you will not tell. After that, the head physician showed him the hospital.

“And here you will conduct your internship.” She pointed to room number 18. “This is the cardiology room.”

Dan studied on the specialty of “cardiology” and therefore he had to work here.

Amy and Dan went into the study. At the table sat a doctor of about thirty or thirty-five with a shaved head and a small beard of a large build. He put down the folder with the documents, stood up and held out his hand to Dan:

– Jim Richards.

“Dan Smith,” Dan shook his hand.

– This is the head of the department of cardiology Dr. Richards. He will supervise you.

Further, Amy Jones briefly gave directions to Dr. Richards about the forthcoming work and went into her office. At this time, Dr. Jim Richards and Dan talked a little about life, about the hospital, about work and about every little thing. Dan liked to talk with Dr. Richards, because his voice was very calm and it was relaxing.

After lengthy discussions about everything in the world, Dr. Richards gave Dan the first assignment. It was relatively simple: to get acquainted with the personal affairs of the patients of the cardiology department. This was the only assignment for today. It seemed easy for Dan, however it was exhausting: the patients in the department were about twenty-five and it was necessary to study each case.
