普里娅·帕特尔

普里娅·帕特尔(Priya Patel)医生是一名医生，也是一名专门研究女性不孕症治疗的内分泌科医生。她也是Allison的私人朋友，她们一起打桥牌，因此（大家庭中）有任何医疗需求都会找她。根据Allison的说法，普里娅是接生主人公的医生，这也是Allison第一次见到她。（普里娅也提到过，许多年前她也曾有过男性患者，所以她显然已经换过几次专业方向了。） 她对不孕症治疗的兴趣源于她自己完全无法怀孕，而她的亲戚们对此无情地谴责她。（她有印度血统，在那里，无法为丈夫提供继承人被视为极大的耻辱。）她的婚姻是包办婚姻，一旦明确她既无法生育又完全拒绝像传统那样放弃事业成为家庭主妇，她的丈夫就完全冷落了她。 后来，由于她的丈夫拒绝陪同，MC主动提出陪她去参加妹妹的婚礼，普里娅决定碰碰运气，接受他的提议。（她很清楚自己已经让亲戚们失望透顶，不可能更糟了，所以她决定找点乐子，让一个年轻的白人男性做她的男伴。）

Dr. Priya Patel is a medical doctor, an endocrinologist specialising in female infertility treatments. She is also a personal friend of Allison, they play bridge together, so she is the one called upon for any medical need in the (extended) family. According to Allison, Priya was the doctor that delivered the main character and that this was the first time Allison met her. (Priya has also mentioned that she used to have male patients as well, many years ago, so she has apparently changed speciality several times.) Her interest in infertility treatments stems from her own total inability to become pregnant, something her relatives mercilessly condemn her for. (She is of Indian heritage and there it is seen as a great shame to be unable to provide her husband with an heir.) She is in an arranged marriage and once it became clear that she was both infertile and completely refused to give up her career to became a housewife, as would be traditional, her husband has totally shunned her. Later, MC offers to accompany her to her sister's wedding, as her husband refuses, and Priya decides to take a chance and take him up on it. (She is well aware that she can't disappoint her relatives any more than she already has so she decides to have some fun by having a young, white, man as her cavalier.)
