Abstract:
:Doctors are pivotal characters in Star Trek. This paper will review Dr. Julian Bashir, a unique medic who is genetically engineered to superhuman capacities while deliberately designed to have human failings, which he successfully overcomes. His genetic enhancements allow him to excel in whatever he does and although initially portrayed as callow, arrogant, brash and naïve, his open mind permits him to eventually discard these negative traits to become a more rounded, if superhuman, doctor, who forms staunch friendships among the crew of the space station. Like all other Trek doctors, Bashir has firm deontological ideals and ethics that lead him to side with and protect his patient, come what may. He is compassionate but cool and collected, performing brilliantly under pressure. This doctor reflects a patient's ideal: a superhuman who knows it all. It is abundantly clear that we, the viewers and prospective patients, wish our doctors to boldly go where no medic has gone before - just as long as we are cured!
