Fresenius Restoration

Fresenius Restoration is a healthcare company based in the Central Sword Coast region. It is currently held by the city-state of Baldur's Gate after being seized as part of the investigation into the Sword Coast Sight Rot Epidemic.
On the island headquarters, they serve waffles in the cafeteria on Tuesdays.
==History==
Fresenius was incorporated in Baldur's Gate by founder and former CEO Taldic Lowery. In its early years, it served primarily as a distributor supplying healing potions and other medical supplies to the independent merchants of Baldur's Gate that otherwise lacked the necessary trade connections.
In 133 PR, the company began opening its own pop-up storefronts in several Central Sword Coast locations: Athkatla, Baldur's Gate, Candlekeep, Crimmor, and Elturel. Although these locations were marketed as general urgent care medical facilities, their opening coincided with a sight rot epidemic , which Fresenius Restoration was later found to have intentionally caused while also stockpiling the only known cure, Eyebright.
==Sight Rot Epidemic==
MCVFD discovered that Fresenius Restoration was contaminating water supplies from the River Chionthar and other adjacent rivers on the sword coast with a liquid form of Sight Rot mixed by the head alchemist of Fresenius Restoration at a makeshift facility in the previously-abandoned Fort Morninglord.
MCVFD were able to arrest the head alchemist and deliver him to Baldur's Gate city watch along with various gathered evidence. However, MCVFD failed to apprehend CEO Taldic Lowery, who is still at large.
The Drake Guard field office initially seized Fort Morninglord to ensure the safekeeping of the stock of Eyebright, but later relinquished control to Baldur's Gate City Watch under agreement that the now-Municipalized Fresenius Restoration would seek to distribute the stock of Eyebright to affected citizens of both Baldur's Gate and other affacted cities.
== Chaos Phage Research ==
It turns out these guys are real assholes who can't be trusted to do any ethical science. MCVFD went on an errand for the Limbo Drakeguard to recover a research station near the Slaad Spawning Stone. [source] The station was supposed to be doing research into a cure for Slaad phage, but was found to instead be doing illicit research instead. Among the many unethical experiments, the head researcher was running a project to reverse engineer chaos phage to produce a disease to convert a host into an Illithid, or a mind flayer, the mortal enemies of the Gith Zorai. After defeating and killing the head researcher, Nissa bluffed the hell out of his corpse to get the name of his contact inside the organization.
