June Hirata

Dr. Hirata has brown eyes, long straight black hair, and fair skin. She wears a peach blouse and black slacks under a white Edenbrook Hospital coat. You note that she is "intense-looking".

Personality
Baz says that June is more perceptive than he is. Ethan says she likes to find out what makes people tick and may get nosy.

Background
Dr. Ramsey states that a few years ago, Dr. Hirata was the youngest member of the diagnostics team (before you). She won her place by "ruthlessly stalking" Dr. Banerji all over the hospital, basically taking his cases, writing them up and solving them and handing them back to him. Dr. Banerji would never admit if he granted her the place on the team because he was impressed by her or because he was afraid of her.
