The attending doctor in sickbay is Dr. Cottle, but there are lab coat-wearing specialists and medics who are sometimes present to render aid (Litmus).
The sickbay also seems to have the equipment of a basic small hospital; beds, stretchers, IV's, etc. The spartan appearance of the sickbay is reminiscent of a Mobile Army Surgical Hospital (MASH) unit.
Major characters who have spent time in sickbay are:
- Cally -- gunshot wound in "Bastille Day", later beaten to the point of having her jaw broken by Galen Tyrol and needing it rewired.
- President Laura Roslin -- breast exam and inquiry about available medication in "Act of Contrition", near-death from advanced breast cancer in "Epiphanies".
- Starbuck -- broken knee from "You Can't Go Home Again" to "Six Degrees of Separation"
- Galactica-Sharon -- for gunshot wound in the cheek from "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I"
- William Adama -- after the attempt on his life by Sharon Valerii from "Scattered" to "Resistance"
- Gaius Baltar -- A process similar to a Magnetic Resonance Imaging scan of his brain, to determine whether or not his "internal" Number Six was a chip in "Home, Part II"
- Apollo -- gunshot wound in "Sacrifice"
- Caprica-Sharon -- near-miscarriage in "Final Cut", attempted rape resulting in a cracked rib treated in "Resurrection Ship, Part I", Caesarian-section birth in "Downloaded".
According to Lee Adama, the sickbay is also designed as a disaster shelter in the event of a ship catastrophe (Valley of Darkness).
