Line 10:
In [[Real Life]], a medical doctor worthy of his degree abides by [https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Hippocratic_Oath#:~:text=The%20Hippocratic%20Oath%20is%20an,to%20uphold%20specific%20ethical%20standards. the Hippocratic Oath], a pledge that begins with the phrase ''primum non nocere'', the modern interpretation being "I will abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm", a vow (often to God or whatever faith he follows) to act as a healer who treats injury and disease, never one who causes them. But sometimes, often in fiction, this oath is not always held as sacred.
A '''Deadly Doctor''', simply put, is someone who fights or kills with a medical motif. He uses his medical knowledge to injure, torture or kill, and uses [[Improbable Weapon User|syringes, pills or surgical instruments]] or medical techniques to achieve his goals, violating the Oath in a blatant manner, assuming he ever took it to begin with. Surely the ultimate example of the [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate]]. One reason for this is due to all his/her training: while having advanced knowledge on the human body can be used to save people, it also gives all the knowledge on how to injure and kill people with minimal effort by knowing all the body's weak points.
Unless, of course, [[Dark Is Not Evil|he's good]]. Which [[No Cure for Evil|there is a fairly good chance of]], being able to [[Combat Medic|heal as well as harm]].
