Cal lives in the Doctor's house in the village. His great grandfather helped to build it and the family has been the town doctor for years. The clinic currently a little cold and clinical but Cal is doing everything possible to make it nicer. He orders in special candy for his bowl on the reception desk and is working on making the whole building less cold. The Old Doctor Sherman preferred the clinic to be clinical but Cal is still trying to brighten it up. He has no idea how to paint or anything but he desperately wants the clinic to be seen as a happy place where people are happy to go.
The house connected to the clinic is just the same as the clinic. The building feels cold and a little unwelcoming. As soon as Cal moved in, he brought his collection of painting that he had used in his old apartment in the city. The building still has a lot of work to do but Cal intends for the building to be his own in every way.

Caleb was born in his family's medical clinic in the town. The Shermans had lived there for countless generations. His great great grandfather had been the first doctor sent to the town and they had been there ever since. For Generations the Shermans stayed still in the town loving their position as the medical experts. They would marry some local girl and the cycle of Sherman doctors would continue. Then along came Cal Sherman. As was proper, he was going to be the town doctor but his mother had always told him stories about the cities. The glamorous life that awaited him if he went there. Cal wanted more than to be a small town doctor. He still wanted to be a doctor like everyone in his family but not to keep himself trapped. One day when Cal was eleven years old, his mother suddenly collapsed. Despite her husband's best efforts, she died of cancer a few weeks later. The loss of his wife nearly broke Doctor Sherman and he retreated from his son. They rarely if ever spoke and that tension was not good for his relationship with his son. Cal was forced to raise himself while doing his best to hide his family's dysfunction from the town.
By the time he was 16, Cal had a plan formulated in his head. He was going to get out of the town and away from his overbearing father. Behind his father's back Cal applied to a local university to get his degree in medicine. He got in on early admission which meant that he could get out of town much earlier. One cold winter's night, Cal packed his bags and the fled the town without telling a soul. He left with the intention to never go back. He went to university and pursued his degree in medicine. Cal clearly had a knack for medicine and he excelled at university eventually getting his residency at a local hospital. The whole time, Cal didn't even think about the village. That was a part of his past. He was so close to finally getting where he wanted in life when he got a call from his father. He was retiring and was desperate for his son to return. Cal weakly agreed if for the villagers more than his father.
Now there is a Sherman doctor in the village. Cal still feels like he abandoned them and that they wouldn't accept him for running away. Now Cal is doing his best to keep the family clinic running while reintegrating himself in the town.
