Doctor Fan, a red-headed immigrant from Chan Molest who had chosen to devote his life to the service of the Ganfolk.
It was the strongmen Bullock and Brod who extracted Heineman from Chalakanesia's first election riot. They got him away to Westport, where they had him checked over by the saintly Doctor Fan, a red-headed immigrant from Chan Molest who had chosen to devote his life to the service of the Ganfolk.
Why anyone of talent should wish to bury themselves in Westport was beyond Heineman's comprehension, and he was at first reluctant to be attended to by Doctor Fan. It wasn't that he was prejudiced. It was just that - well, after spending so many years doctoring the underclass, could Fan still be guaranteed to be in possession of his finer professional skills?
'You're not broken,' said the bespectacled Doctor Fan, smiling hugely. 'Bruises, scrapings, some hair torn out - nothing a few days won't heal. Put him on a boat, boys, and take him home.' [EoH Ch11]
