The '''Physician''' as a role is an extremely important one. If you know what you're doing, as a physician you ''will'' save lives. Nearly every death can be prevented, provided you reach the victim in time. Since physicians are <s>supposedly</s> the only ones with the tools and the in-character experience to save them, physicians tend to make a lot of friends.

=== Your Coworkers and You ===
==== Surgeon ====
The duties and education of Physicians and [[Surgeon]]s have a good amount of overlap. Both you and the surgeons are expected to have the knowledge of various injuries, how to diagnose them, and how to treat them, among other things. The key difference, however, is how [[Guide_to_Medicine|treatment is done]]. Your focus in the medical bay, as compared to the Surgeons, is to treat injuries using mostly chemical means. There are some injuries, however, that you simply cannot treat through chemical means, and thus require the surgeon to treat them. Make sure to work with the surgeon to effectively distribute patients between chemical treatment and surgical treatment.

Sometimes a surgeon will not be present. In these situations, you are expected to know certain surgical operations which you can find [[Surgery|here]]. Do keep in mind, however, that if there are surgeons on shift, '''DO NOT''' operate on a patient unless the surgeons are busy or it is an emergency.
==== Pharmacist ====
[[Pharmacist]]s are your friend. As mentioned earlier, Physicians treat injuries through chemical means. The pharmacists are your source for medicine which you will use in your work. Because of this, you should work with your pharmacist to make sure there are enough chemicals in storage, and that any chemicals you may need are prepared. For instance, if you have a patient with a heart injury, you should inform your pharmacist to make [[Guide_to_Chemistry#Organ_Regeneratives|Adipemcina]]. In absence of a pharmacist, the Surgeon can treat the same injuries.
==== First Responder ====
[[First Responder]]s are who will be retrieving patients from throughout the ship and bringing them to the medical bay. While they are usually not in the General Treatment Room (GTR), you should work with the First Responders to understand what injuries an incoming patient will have. In return, you should help monitor suit sensors whenever you are not busy.
==== Medical Intern ====
[[Medical Intern]]s are the learners of the medical team. You should make sure interns who are interning to become physicians have a chance to learn about the procedures and chemicals used in the medical bay. After they have learned enough, you can even allow them to treat their own patient and monitor the process to see how they do.

=== Mental Trauma and Policy ===
* All characters with a [[Physician|Medical Doctorate]] degree are capable of diagnosing [[Psychologist#Mental_Trauma|mental trauma]], as well as prescribing medication for their diagnosis.
* [[Surgeon|Surgery]] trained Medical personnel are fully capable of neuro-surgery where necessary to treat mental trauma.
* [[Chemist|Chemists/Pharmacists]] are fully capable of synthesizing mental medication, but they cannot diagnose mental trauma.
* [[Psychologist|Psychiatrists/Psychologists]] are the foremost experts on this type of illness; they are the only one capable of advanced treatment ([[Psychologist#Hypnosis|Hypnosis,]] [[Psychologist#Cognitive_Behavioral_Therapy|Cognitive Behavioral Therapy]], and [[Psychologist#Isolation|Isolation]]). They should be the first to treat [[Psychologist#Mental_Trauma|mental trauma]] when available.

==Roleplay Tips==
* You most likely have a decent knowledge of people and medicines. Use it to help people.
* Feel free to play a nice guy, or the next House. Just make sure people get healed, it's what you're there for after all.
