Disease History Tarkov quest: Therapist's 4 objectives on Reserve

LL3Therapist level

+28,000XP reward

Therapist gives Disease History in Escape from Tarkov (EFT) at loyalty level 3, once you finish 3 other Therapist tasks at that level. The quest sends you to Reserve for 2 medical journals locked in the hospital building. No quest leads into it, and none follows it.

#ObjectiveWhere
1Obtain Medical record #1Room RB-KSM, hospital 2nd floor, Reserve
2Obtain Medical record #2Room RB-SMP, hospital 2nd floor, Reserve
3Hand over Medical record #1Therapist
4Hand over Medical record #2Therapist

Both rooms sit on the same floor, so 1 raid covers all 4 objectives when you carry both keys.

Disease History Reserve locations: 2 medical records in the hospital building

Both journals lie in locked rooms on the 2nd floor of the hospital building on Reserve, known as White Bishop. Climb to the 2nd floor and find rooms RB-KSM and RB-SMP.

Medical record #1: room RB-KSM

Open RB-KSM with the RB-KSM key. Medical record #1 sits on the bottom shelf of the left cabinet.

Medical record #2: room RB-SMP

Open RB-SMP with the RB-SMP key. Medical record #2 lies on the floor between the shelves on the right.

Disease History keys: RB-KSM and RB-SMP

Disease History needs 2 keys, 1 for each room. Both trade on the flea market from PMC level 25, so buy them before the raid and carry both in.
