History

John grew up on the planet Betazed. He is from a race of Telepaths/Empaths.

John grew up in a small suburb of one of the main cities in the temperate climate zone. He was trained in herbal medicines by one of the local physicians whom he assisted there. The physician combined modern technology with ancient Betazed lore to treat patients.

John found this fascinating and spent many hours with the Doctor, who inspired him to study medicine. The finest facility for that study was at Starfleet Medical...so he applied and was accepted.

Currently he is stationed on the USS Jurassic, under the supervision of the Chief Medical Officer.
