Auto-Doc

An Auto-Doc is pre-War medical technology.

Background
Auto-Docs were used to create synthetic substitutes for addictive substances to be used as placebos for chem addicts before the war.

Typically, Auto-Doc functionality includes regenerating health, restoring crippled limbs and performing surgeries, as well as being capable of implementing implants that enhance both physical and mental performance. Optional upgrades also allow it to mitigate fatigue and dispense medical supplies. They were installed in vaults, scavenged for parts after the war.

Auto-Doc
The Auto-Doc comes with its own clamps and braces to secure the patient and an anesthesia reservoir. The Auto-Doc requires regular maintenance or it will malfunction, executing its exploratory surgery routine at random.

Mark I
The first model in the Auto-Doc line features four autonomous arms mounted with a surgery light, a combination scalpel/syringe, tongs, and a multipurpose "hand". They have only been seen in the Mojave Wasteland and the Sierra Madre.
 * The Followers of the Apocalypse have one in the New Vegas medical clinic.
 * A number of Mark I Auto-Docs have been placed in the Sierra Madre Casino & Resort.
 * In Vera Keyes' room in the executive suites.

Mark III
It includes a separate diagnostic module that's prone to burning out after prolonged use. It has only been seen in the Mojave Wasteland in the following locations:
 * Caesar has a malfunctioning one in his tent at Fortification Hill. It is placed at the foot of his bed.
 * One has been included in Vault 34, although it has broken down after the Great War.

Mark IX
When in use, blue lights circle along the top and bottom of the device. It only appears in the Sierra Madre, Big MT, and the Divide, specifically in the following locations:
 * The villa clinic in the Sierra Madre has several of these installed in a dedicated clinic wing.
 * A buried and broken one can be seen in the Y-17 medical facility in Big MT.
 * Several can be found in the Divide:
 * One can be found in the Hopeville Missile Base Headquarters.
 * One in the Cave of the Abaddon.
 * Another in the medical wing of Ashton missile silo.
 * A half buried (but still usable) one before the final elevator in Ulysses' Temple.

Sink model
A unique prototype and the most advanced model of Auto-Doc. It was built by Dr. Mobius in the Sink in Big MT before he left the Think Tank. It has a personality profile programmed in a holotape allowing it to talk, snore loudly and make passing comments on the general health on the person approaching it.

It can perform complex medical procedures like implementing implants. It can give a basic physical exam, cure radiation sickness, lacerations, broken bones, and chemical addictions, give a haircut, provide facial reconstruction, implement implants, switch out brains, spines, hearts, and perform psychiatric evaluation. It is still located in Big MT's the Sink.
