"I would like to talk to you about any concerns you might have about me
interviewing him about the case.  It left him with a great deal of trauma 
is my understanding, and I do not want to make the situation worse for
him," said Jared who was expressing a great deal of concern as he spoke.

"I can advise you about whether I think he could handle such an interview,"
Joanna replied with a bit of relief.

"I was also hoping to talk to you about the case.  As his Counselor,  you
will be able to provide some insight into the situation that could help him 
a great deal."

"I can talk to you about the case as an advisor, but I will not be able to
go into any of the details of the patient's case, Admiral.  That is
protected by doctor-patient privilege.  Talking about his case would be
impossible without his permission," replied Joanna.  She was not going to be
forced into discussing it even if the person doing the questioning was an
Admiral.  "Who is the patient?"

"David Boulay."

Joanna had not put any particular thought into which patient it could be. 
She was caught of guard a bit by the name when Jackson said it.  It was good
that his case was being investigated.  That would mean that those who had
heard David so badly could be brought to justice.  She nodded.  "When would
you like to speak with me, sir?"

"As soon as possible," replied the Admiral.

"I do not have any appointments for some time.  Would you like to meet in my
office or should I come to you?"

"I can come up to Spacedock.  That way you will not have to plan travel time for your next appointment."

"OK, sir.  I will be ready when you arrive."

"Understood."
 
It did not take long for Jared to make arrangements and arrive on the station.  While he could have taken a shuttle, he did not want to put any pressure on the Counselor's schedule so he used one of the transporter hubs.  A few moments later, he reached Primary Sickbay and reached her office.  He rang the chime.
 
(anyone home?)
