Kobe

One of our favorite patients came in on with an emergency the other day. Kobe had gone on an adventure with his housemate and hadn't retured home for four days. When he was found at last, he had a large wound on his hip area. He wouldn't tell us how he got the wound and neither would his cohort. Kobe was glad to go home after the wound was repaired. We wish Kobe happy healing over the holidays.
