There’s a Dr. RP-7 in the house

“The RP-7 looks left, then right before it rolls its 5 1/2-foot-tall body down the hallways of Childrens Hospital Los Angeles.
Its goggle-like eyes see all: signs on walls and children held by parents, the nurses who smile at it and the physicians who give it a nod hello.
The RP-7 is a robot, a cross between WALL-E and R2-D2, only taller and with a speciality in medicine. It also wears a familiar face: that of Dr. Jeffrey Upperman, director of the Childrens Hospital trauma unit.”
