Meet the Doctor
- Prerequisite: Finish “Priority: The Citadel 2”
- Location: Serpent Nebula – Widow – Citadel – Huerta Memorial Hospital – Examination Rooms
After completing “Priority: The Citadel 2,” you can begin this side mission by going to Huerta Memorial Hospital. Once you arrive, move to the Examination Rooms side corridor located in the northwestern section of the facility. There, you can overhear a Salarian speaking to a datapad, frustrated that they can’t help a Turian who’s been poisoned with a toxin engineered specifically for his kind.
Find the Toxin Data
- Location: Minos Wasteland – Arrae – Gellix
You’ll obtain the required item during the side mission “Arrae: Ex-Cerberus Scientists,” which becomes available at the same time as this one.
In “Arrae: Ex-Cerberus Scientists,” you’ll break into the hidden base of those scientists and eventually meet Dr. Brynn Cole at the top of a short flight of stairs. When the cutscene ends, turn back and move toward the stairs again so you can approach the spot you need. On the back wall just ahead, you’ll find a microscope—interact with it to collect the Turian Toxin Data.
If you already missed the Turian Toxin Data while doing “Arrae: Ex-Cerberus Scientists,” you can still recover the quest item at Spectre Requisitions on the Citadel. Buy the Turian-Specific Toxin for 1,000 credits; purchasing it will also satisfy this quest’s requirement.
Deliver the Toxin Data
With the toxin data in hand, head back to the doctor at Huerta Memorial Hospital. Speak with him to hand it over, earn his thanks, and claim the mission rewards.
