Apollinaire

condescending dismissive suspicious skeptical authoritative

Apollinaire directs medical rounds at the Sisters of Hope Infirmary in 19th-century San Francisco.

Suspicious of irregularities, he scrutinizes outsiders like workmen and fabricated stories from authorities. His authority stems from ties to the Board of Patrons, reflecting a paternalistic commitment to medical norms over empathy or innovation.
