The doc draws some of their own blood with a syringe, and injects it into the target slowly, ideally around whatever location was the most affected. They do this to themselves too, and always seem to draw it from the same spot.
After the scare they experienced in one of their contracts, the doc used their expertise to alter their liver such that it creates antibodies which can cure anything known to man. This was a terrifying process of trial and error, and at least three hospital visits, but they've got it to a point theyre satisfied with. The only downside is that the antibodies and enzymes don't yet spread quickly enough throughout her body, so she has to manually inject herself if the passive amount in her blood doesn't fight off a problem. The good news is, whatever she did, the stuff she pulls from there seems to even work on robots, or the like - simply being injected into any opening that can be made on the target will make it slowly seek out and neutralize the problem.
