Janet doesn't understand magic, so she pretends it doesn't exist. Due to that she's pretty susceptible to illusionary spells, as it clicks with her mindset.
:v:
I'll say that my main (who's a villain) would certainly not care whether he's a surgeon or something else as long as someone is paying me good INF to kidnap him.
My main hero (Cryopulse) would probably routinely contact the Midnighters to see if there's an actual sorcerer who is being confused for this talented surgeon (nothing more) -- at least until the charm wears off and she forgets why she's there to begin with. She might have attempted to help Dr. Fayte to get a legal name change to prevent further trouble.

Most of you will be familiar with the unfortunate case of Dr. Stephen Fayte, who gets kidnapped almost as often as Bentley Berkeley, even though he is merely a gifted surgeon and nothing more. Some, however, persist in the absurd belief that he is actually a powerful sorceror. So which is it for your characters?
Miss Megajoule, V-Max, Sky Raider X, VERB and the Stellar Champion all agree that Dr. Fayte is only a gifted surgeon, and nothing more. (X even taunted his Thorn abductors for being so dumb as to think otherwise.)
the Watchmaker: "Yes, of course. And I am a harmless inventor." *chuckle*
the Spirit of the Row: "C'mon, Doc, it's me."
the Star of Justice: [... Extraordinary. Your secret is safe with us, sir. Now, let's get you to safety.]
(Taxibot Gamma is an unusual case; while unaffected by the charm, he's naturally extremely credulous and has no reason to doubt the doctor's claim.)
