Personality & Traits
| General Overview | A consummate professional in matters of Medicine, thought not always the most delicate instrument in terms of his bedside manner. Anson is never rude or condescending, but he doesn't sugar coat his diagnoses or his suggestions. Always willing to go the extra mile for the patient as needed. Not strictly happy to be back in Starfleet after his retirement plans went belly-up. Had the Galaxy evolved differently he would be enjoying a cocktail on his tropical retreat; not tending whiny Starfleet Officers in Sick bay. |

| Personal History | Doctor Corduke had a storied career in Starfleet, and chose to retire while he was on top. He took everything he had and moved to a tropical planetary retreat where he fully intended to live out his life in peace; drowning in tropical drinks. Unfortunately for Anson, his planet of choice was within the blast zone when the Romulan star Hobus went Supernova. The blast did not destroy the planet outright, but it turned the planet into a wasteland that was further destroyed by the hordes of survivors that flocked to one of the remaining hospitable worlds in the area. Anson, as a Physician, helped where he could but jumped back on the first Starfleet vessel that came to the area to evacuate Federation citizens and anyone else who had clearance for passage back to Federation space. In need of Physicians, Starfleet reactivated Anson's commission and returned him to active duty. For now, he's serving as needed, but he has every desire to get back to a tropical retirement as soon as possible. |
