Game Play
This is the first Bobblehead a player's character will see. There is no karma loss when the player picks this item up. It permanently improves your character's Medicine skill by 10. If you own a home either in Megaton or Tenpenny Tower then the player's character can place this bobblehead on the Bobblehead Collector's Stand. This stand is owned by the Lone Wanderer. This procedure can be repeated each time you get a new bobblehead and wish for it to be put on display. The medicine bobblehead can be obtained before you take your G.O.A.T., during your escape from the vault or during your brief (optional) return to Vault 101. Keep in mind that this bobblehead in most cases can't be recovered after the quest Trouble on the Homefront. The door to Vault 101 will be permanently closed. However, if the player's character floods the Vault and then later returns to see it destroyed in the ensuing civil war, they can enter the Vault. Everyone in the Vault has either died or fled to the Capital Wasteland. Retracing the player character's steps through the Vault to the Physician's Office, they can recover the bobblehead this way.
