    The Autobot have doctors of their own, Ratchet, the Protectobots, Wheeljack (if he is considered as one). But the thing is do the Decepticons have doctors of their own? are the Insecticons considered as doctors? seeing how they go rogue most of the time, I doubt they will repair any wounded Decepticons without getting anything out of it. Unless they capture Autobots to repair the wounded Decepticons, like in the episode "Cosmic Rust" where Megatron had Percepto captured to repair, but the thing is after he was the one who was contaminated with Cosmic Rust. Has it been stated as whom it could be?

    You mentioned Cosmic Rust but appear to have forgotten that Starscream was tending to Megatron when he removed the asteroid chunk.

    Also, Hook is apparently quite adept with precision tasks.

    But before that, he was a Decepticon. You can even see his old paint job.

    I guess by the nature of Decepticon philosophy respecting only the strong to lead compassion for the injured or weak would mean that Decepticon doctors would likely to be fewer in number and I think it was Krok in mtmte that said the only difference between us (the decepticons) and the autobots is that they go back for their dead.

    Neither are particularly caring but I'm sure both soundwave and shockwave has sort have filled that role when the plot demanded it.

    Pharma may never have been a Decepticon but he certainly served there interests with his work with the D.J.D.

    Talking of medically trained professionals now that the Autobots have their Rung as a role of psychologist, how about the Decepticons having their equivalent? I find what the Decepticons might consider someone functioning in a mentally healthy way to be fascinating, given their philosophies and what actions/behaviour Megatron wants from them. I am also curious as to what therapy sessions and interventions would be like and what kind kind of character traits Megatron would want for this role. Maybe the character would end up being a little similar to scarecrow from the Batman franchise. I think they might end up taking the philosophy of break them down to not build them back up so sadists might be well suited like Airachnid, Overlord and the D.J.D.

    Scalpel, Flatline and Knockout are the official medics of the Decepticons it seems.

    Glit is a medic too. Hook is a mechanical surgeon or something like that, I would classify this as a medic.

    Why has everybody forgotten Shockwave. IDW Shockwave clearly "fixes" Soundwave after being shot in the face!
