... and that is how we can clone cells to make replacement limbs. We have to be careful that the tissue cultures don't get contaminated, but... in any event, I think I've talked enough... hope it was informative.
”— Dr Troy giving a tour of Vault City's facilities
Doctor Troy is the main medical specialist of Vault City in 2241, responsible for all medical affairs related to the citizenry and its Servants.
Residing on the entrance level of Vault 8 with his assistant, Nurse Phyllis, Troy is a middle aged man wearing a spotless, pristine lab coat. He is one of the best physicians in the wastelands, with access to top notch facilities. As such, the level of care he provides is commonly considered to be the best of the best, including inoculations, vaccinations, cloning replacement organs and body parts, ensuring proper diets for all citizens, and more.
Dr Troy is also concerned about the problems caused by drugs throughout the wasteland. The emergence of Jet has particularly concerned him, leading him to consider commissioning someone to smuggle a sample of Jet for him to analyze. Eventually, he managed to develop a Jet antidote, breaking the vicious cycle of addiction in New California.[1]
The player can blackmail the good doctor by threatening to reveal his smuggling to the First Citizen, receiving $500–$1000 each month. Obviously, going to him for treatment afterwards will kill the player character (6999 points of damage as a result of a lethal injection from the Auto-Doc).
