Janet Fraiser

"Janet Fraiser was an extraordinary person. She was kind and funny and talented. Above all, she was courageous."

- Samantha Carter

Janet Fraiser, M.D. was a talented and compassionate human of the Tau'ri. She led the medical teams at the SGC meaning that she had to deal with a variety of unusual problems.

Background information
Fraiser was once married to a man who discouraged her from joining the United States Air Force. They were no longer together as of 1997 and, apparently, they never had any children. In her seven and a half years at the SGC she became one the foremost experts on Goa'uld symbiotes, having created a symbiote tank to keep Junior in, and having had opportunity's to dissect dead symbiotes. Being the Chief Medical Officer at the SGC, Dr. Fraiser had the authority to overrule those of any rank when it came to medical issues. Having used this to get SG-1 into the infirmary on multiple occasions and ceasing experimental tests on SG team members. Her use of such authority once led Colonel Jack O'Neill to call her a 'Napoleonic power monger'.

1997
When Fraiser was first assigned to Stargate Command, she had to deal with the Touched virus, which she, Teal'c, and Dr. Daniel Jackson were immune to. After Teal'c managed to secure a blood sample from the Untouched, she realized that she and Daniel were immune because of the of their use of Antihistamine for allergies. She was then able to synthesize a cure.

When the real Colonel Jack O'Neill returned from P3X-562, she determined he was indeed the real O'Neill.

When Colonel Jack O'Neill was infected with nanites on the planet Argos, she discovered the nanites in his blood. While experimenting on the nanites, they almost breached containment and Major General George S. Hammond ordered them destroyed. Fortunately, SG-1 was able to deactivate the nanites in O'Neill and the rest of the Argosians.

She attempted to remove the Goa'uld symbiote from Teal'c and replace his dependence on it with a drug but was unsuccessful.

When Dr. Daniel Jackson was presumed dead on the planet Oannes, she believed the rest of SG-1 were suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and made Major General George S. Hammond remove them active duty for a week. When they began to question what they remember, she called Dr. James MacKenzie to do a psychiatric examination.

She assisted Captain Samantha Carter in stopping Hathor gain control of Stargate Command when all the men on the base were affected by Hathor's mysterious pink mist. She was wounded in the process and received a medal for her actions.

When SG-1 traveled to Hanka and discovered all the Hankan were wiped out by a virus, she and her team were called in to examine SG-1. She cleared them and they went to tag the bodies in hazmat suits. They found a lone survivor name Cassandra. She examined her and found no trace of the virus in her system and she was taken to Earth. Later, Cassandra fell ill and she discovered a bomb in her chest. She and Dr. William Warner tried to remove it but it temperately stopped her heart. They attempted to send Cassandra back to Hanka but it was determined the closer she got to the Stargate the worse she became. They took her to an abandoned nuclear facility and since she was no longer in proximity to Gate the bomb broke down in her system. Afterwards, she adopted Cassandra.

1998
When SG-1 returned from Altair, she preformed an exam on Colonel Jack O'Neill and found no heart beat. She then took his blood and saw the blood was white. O'Neill then used and scalpel to cut into his arm and found he was an Android.

When SG-1 returned from Nasya, she preformed an exam on Captain Samantha Carter. She discovered the abrasion in her throat but was unaware it was an entry mark from Jolinar of Malkshur. She later traveled to the Air Force Academy Hospital to help care for the Nasyans. She discovered that one of the Nasyans had incapacitated Dr. Jacobs and escaped the hospital. It was later learned he was an Ashrak named Edrekh. When he succeeded in killing Jolinar, she attempted to save Carter and was successful.

When SG-1 returned from the planet Terella and Dr. Daniel Jackson became ill, she determined he was suffering from withdrawal from the Sarcophagus. While he was recovering, he attacked her and escaped. Fortunately, she was unharmed.

When the Virus Orb opened and one of the spikes pierced Colonel Jack O'Neill's shoulder, she used antibiotics to slow the grow of the A't'trr. Unfortunately, Lt. Graham Simmons was allergic to the antibiotics and became very ill. Luckily, SG-1 was able to convince the A't'trr to go to P4G-881 and he and O'Neill survived.

When SG-1 returned from Chulak with Drey'auc and Rya'c, she examined Rya'c and confirmed there was not a bomb implanted in his chest. Luckily, Drey'auc noticed that his missing teeth had been replaced and Fraiser was able to remove them. She determined it contained a deadly plague that would have killed everyone on Earth.

When Teal'c was bitten by an Infestation fly BP6-3Q1, she realized he was beyond her help and called in an expert. With the assistance of Captain Samantha Carter and herself, Dr. Timothy Harlow was able to counteract the bugs venom and with the help of Junior reverse the effects.

2000
At some point after Samantha Carter was promoted to Major, Fraiser was also promoted.

2001
She later became the adopted mother of Cassandra. When Cassandra began to suffer from a retrovirus that altered her DNA, a desperate Fraiser held Nirrti at gunpoint, demanding that the former System Lord heal her. When General George S. Hammond offered to allow Nirrti to leave, Nirrti refused, only to be reminded by Hammond that Fraiser was Cassandra's foster mother.

2004
Janet Fraiser was killed in action in 2004 at P3X-666. Among the many lives saved by Dr. Fraiser, and listed by Teal'c and Samantha Carter at Janet Fraiser's memorial service, was the whole SG-1 team, Airman Simon Wells, Major Ian Hewles and Sergeant Conny Smith.

Alternate realities

 * In an alternate reality Janet Fraiser wasn't killed, Daniel Jackson apparently managing to get her out of the path of the staff blast. She was later seen on a mission with an SG-1 consisting of Daniel Jackson, Cameron Mitchell, and Martouf, that reality's Sam apparently being on maternity leave. Like her counterpart in our reality, she was a medical doctor.

Alternate timelines

 * In an Alternate timeline Janet Fraiser gave Samantha Carter a check up when she was having difficulty conceiving a child. Janet discovered Samantha was unable to have children even though Aschen doctors said she was fine. When they investigated further, they found that almost all of the Earth's population has been sterilized. They informed Daniel Jackson, Teal'c, and Jack O'Neill and together formed a plan to prevent this from ever happening. When the plan was put in motion, Janet traveled to Chulak to let Teal'c know.
