navy doctors

Maritime military medics

Navy doctors are physicians who serve in a nation's naval military branch, providing medical care to sailors, marines, and their families.

They work aboard ships, at naval hospitals, and in combat zones.

The navy doctors treated casualties from the destroyer.

The term is descriptive rather than a fixed title—the official designation varies by country.
