There's this great bit of art (that I don't know how to post on this forum) from the Durgama Takeover campaign of Avicenna leading a squad of Kaplans in a space station. It's one of my favorite bits of art to come out of recent books. While this art at the time was designed to reflect a ForCo fireteam, ForCo has gone and many of the surviving named characters have found homes in other factions. She didn't make it to WhiteCo with her Kaplans, so maybe she could be added to QK as a Kaplan fireteam option? I know she would be competing with Rouhani, but she has a cool model and I never get to use her anymore.
On one hand, Avicenna doesn't have much presence now - just Hassassin Bahram and Bakunin. She could, indeed, use some more. On the other, Qapu Khalqi has an abundance of doctors - from the humble Ghulam to the exceptional Janissary (Doctor 2W), and including Regenerating Djanbazan, NCO Sekban and Combat Instinct Kaplan (least impressive as a medic of them all). And then dr.Rouhani on top of them for a character medic, matching Avicenna in terms of NWI and raw WIP. Nb. Avicenna's WIP 15 Doctor +3 does befit the reputation of The Prince of the Physicians (as RL Avicenna was sometimes described for his prowess) when you compare her to the basic Daktari (flat WIP 13) or even otherwise impressive Reverend Healer (flat WIP 14), with Mother Healer Agatha Wabara providing an interesting, if niche, side-step (WIP 14, Doctor 2W, on top of of some really impressive combat prowess) - which is all her other army, BJC, has access to in terms of doctors. But in QK, Ghulam, Djan and Sekban are all WIP 14 Doctor +3, Rouhani - WIP 15 Doctor +3. Avicenna's healing skill suddenly becomes less impressive in comparison. Kaplan and Jannissary are basic WIP 14, with Janissary rocking the beforementioned Doctor 2W ability (which is niche on its own, but IMO come through on the Janissary, giving the Janissary Fireteam an option to include a native Doctor capable of bringing Janissaries to full health - or bringing up Azra'il to full health, albeit these two can't make a fireteam, so I tended to do it via solo Jannissary Doc w/Nasmat). Kaplan, well... the sole point of Kaplan Doc these days would be, in my eyes, giving a Kaplan Fireteam a native Doctor. If you don't mind Fireteam Purity, you can toss in a Wildcard Sekban Doc or dr.Rouhani already. Avicenna would have to have some wild Fireteam options to make her really viable in QK from the game standpoint. But if she were to count as Kaplan for firerteam composition, she'd basically invalidate the Kaplan Doc totally. And in RTF she'd also see a lot of serious competition. However, since she had her stunt with the private sector working for the Foreign Company, maybe she could find herself a place in Dahshat? I know they are far from the high standard of ForCo, but they are there, they are vaguely Haqq-related (certainly closer to Haqq than the Druze Bayram, IMO), and their doctor options are limited to the Ghulam, the Brawler and the 112 / Motorized 112 (of which I'd consider the Motorized 112 and Ghulam as interesting options, the other two are respectively a WIP 12 with limited Fireteam ability and WIP 13 with no Fireteam ability Doctors). I believe Avicenna would fit the role of a Wildcard there pretty well.
