Nurse Who? (comic story)
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Nurse Who? was the eleventh story of The Many Lives of Doctor Who, published in 2018.
Summary
An alien bomb in ancient Greece, with some Sontaran interference, which found its way into the British Museum, was booby trapped with praxis gas, which poisoned the Tenth Doctor when he deactivated it. Elizabeth Garrett Anderson, recruited as nurse by Cindy Wu, saved him with natural Quercetin in food and tea. The Doctor in turn helped her with the next step for her life's dream of becoming a doctor.
