Surgery

Dr. Steinman is just up ahead, beyond the metal gate. Approach the gate to attract the Security Bot’s attention, then back away around the corner to get out of Dr. Steinman’s view. Hit the Security Bot with the Electro Bolt and hack it to tilt the odds in your favor. By now the metal gate will be open and you can see to the task of relinquishing Dr. Steinman of his keys.

Destroy (or hack) the Turret beyond the gate where Dr. Steinman was located and approach the door on the right-hand side. Enter the operating room here and shock the Security Camera at the far end before it spots you. Take care of the Security Camera and collect the goodies on the desk—they’ll come in handy soon enough!

Safe

Destroy or hack the Security Camera on the ceiling in the operating room, then approach the safe beneath it. The First Aid Kits in this safe are well worth hacking the safe for, especially with the impending battle against Dr. Steinman.

Dr. Steinman

Dr. Steinman is the head surgeon in the Aesthetic Ideals cosmetic surgery practice and he is on a crusade to make the world a more beautiful place, one ugly person at a time. His methods are appalling and his disdain for symmetry often leaves his clients hideously disfigured. Those who don’t die on the operating table often wish they had.

Boss Attacks

Machine Gun

Dr. Steinman isn’t about to use his operating saws or scalpels in this fight. Instead, he relies entirely on the Machine Gun he keeps by his side.

Battle Plan

Approach the glass window and watch as Dr. Steinman loses his mind—what was left of it anyway—and maddeningly hacks into his patient with a knife. He’ll soon calm down long enough to notice you watching him. He sees you as just another ugly person needing to be put out of their misery and opens fire at once.

Step aside, out of view of the window, and equip the Electro Bolt and Shotgun. Enter the room through either door and use the plasmid to shock Dr. Steinman in place so you can shoot him with the Shotgun several times. When the electricity dissipates, he’ll start running away from you, all the while firing his Machine Gun. Dr. Steinman stays on the move, constantly running laps around his operating room and up the stairs and through the two doors near the observation platform where you were just standing.

If you hacked the Security Bot in the hallway earlier you will be glad you did. Not only will the Security Bot chase after Dr. Steinman and open fire on him, but it draws much of Dr. Steinman’s firepower away from you. So while Dr. Steinman continues to run in circles firing at the Security Bot, you can cut him off near the doors, hit him with Electro Bolt and blast him with the Shotgun at a disgustingly close range. Monitor your health and EVE levels and replenish them accordingly. Thanks to the Security Bot and the abundance of Shotgun ammo that has been lying around, you should be able to pronounce the good doctor DOA within no time.

Objective 5: Open the Emergency Access Now that you have Steinman’s key, return to the Emergency Acess area. Use the key at the Emergency Access panel.

Take the Emergency Access Key and ammunition from Dr. Steinman’s corpse and spend a minute searching the rest of the room for items before you begin the journey back through the Surgery Foyer and north towards the Lounge. The tunnel back to the main lobby has collapsed so you don’t really have another choice.

This safe is on a desk in the water-filled lower level of Dr. Steinman’s operating room. It’s very easy to hack and could prove useful if you’re having trouble defeating Dr. Steinman.
