The old Montgolfier Building has seen its share of history in our fair city, but soon it will host what some consider a beacon of hope. It shall soon host the Avalon Clinic to tend to the ill. The founder is Dr. Guenivere D’Avalon. Some just call her “Doc Avalon.” The doctor is a graduate of the prestigious Miskatonic University, and she previously worked at Innsmouth Hospital in New England.
“I saw this city when visiting some relatives, and I fell in love,” said Dr. Avalon. “I knew that there was a need I could address.” The clinic plans to offer a variety of treatments, from surgery to tonics for health. There is a hint of controversy, as Dr. Avalon supposedly left Innsmouth after practicing “advanced experiments.” When asked about this, she replied, “I have always believed in the advancement of science, both for human good and for its own sake. There are always those that fail to understand what needs to be done, and Innsmouth’s loss will be New Toulouse’s benefit!”
Apparently Dr. Avalon is doing well, as she has already hired a local to be her nurse. She plans to hire medical staff and lab assistants, and soon she will be seeing patients. “We do hope to be open by Mardi Gras. After all, this city will have a great need for proper medicine once the tourists start getting drunk and rowdy.”
Avis Picayune is a tough old bird that perches on the porches of the city. Wet her beak with a little liquor, and she may sing out some interesting tidbits.
