Medic Robots appear in Mann vs. Machine as enemies. When spawned, their secondary weapon is always trained on another robot, usually a giant, and they only heal that robot until it is destroyed, whereupon it will find another robot to heal.
Provided that they have it available, Medic robots always deploy their ÜberCharge when either their patient's health drops below 50% of their maximum health or the Medic's health drops below 50 health points. When Medic robots are separated from their heal target or cornered by a player, they fight with their Syringe Guns and look for their patient, however, their syringe guns deal much less damage than a normal Syringe Gun, making them not much of a threat without a heal target. If separated from their patient, Medic robots are unable to deploy their charge until they find a new patient. Unlike the other robots, Medic robots have a wheel (or two wheels attached to a chariot in Romevision mode) to move instead of legs.

Type 1 of the Quick-Fix Medics heal teammates much faster than Über Medics but have a incredibly slow ÜberCharge rate which is the equivalent of having no ÜberCharge, and are also equipped with a Syringe Gun. They tend to appear in larger numbers than Über Medics.

A second variant of Quick-Fix Medic that is equipped with the regular Quick-Fix. If left alive in the battlefield for an amount of time, it can get its Mega-heal (Quick-Fix's ÜberCharge) ready. It does not outheal the first variant's heal however.
Über Medic
These Medics don't appear often as other robots, but when they do, they usually accompany Giant Robots, with as many as twelve Medics healing a single Giant. Über Medics are equipped with a Syringe Gun and Medi Gun. They spawn with full ÜberCharge and will deploy it under the same conditions as other Medic robots. With enough burst damage, it is possible to destroy these before they are able to deploy ÜberCharge, allowing defenders to circumvent the invulnerability period. Unlike other types of Medic-bots, these Medics stay close to their patients at all times. A Soldier under the influence of the Kritzkrieg ÜberCharge or a pre-laid Stickybomb carpet can help kill the Medics before they deploy their ÜberCharge.

The Giant Medic heals its patient (almost always a Giant Robot) at 200 times the heal rate of the standard Quick-Fix, fast enough to instantly outheal any kind of damage the defenders can inflict, hence it is of utmost priority that the defenders concentrate their firepower towards the robot. A Medic’s Projectile Shield can help protect the defenders from any incoming damage while they focus fire on the robot. It spawns with a full ÜberCharge meter, and has a considerable amount of health (second only to Giant Heavies, "boss" giants, and Tanks). Giant Medics will activate übercharge (Or Megaheal) under the same conditions as regular Medic robots; this means that it is possible to kill this bot without it ever using its ÜberCharge. Like other Medic robots, Giant Medics will find new healing targets if their old ones are dead (commonly choosing targets such as Soldier robots and Heavy robots).
In Broken Parts and Caliginous Caper, Giant Medics wear a Warsworn Helmet.

Although this variant doesn't have an ÜberCharge, it regenerates health faster than other Medic robots, which can allow it to recover a large amount of health if left to do so. Likewise, focus fire on the robot and do not give it breathing room to regenerate health.

Update history
- Fixed the Über Medics in Wave 4 of the Broken Parts mission charging at an incorrect rate.
- [Undocumented] Added -90% Syringe Gun damage penalty to all robot Medics.
- [Undocumented] Removed the secondary-only weapon restriction from Quick-Fix Medics.
Unused content
- There are three unused Medic robot types all attempting to use a scrapped weapon that does not exist named
The Vaccinator MvM
in the game files. When given a Vaccinator, each one uses a different resistance type with the Vaccinator and fully resist all damage resistable by the selected resistance type. There is also an unused Uber Medic variant with one-fourth the normal Ubercharge rate.- Additionally, the Vaccinator has unused special shields that would be used for Vaccinator Medic robots in Mann Vs. Machine; these shields comes in an array of different colors with each individually meant for the respective resistance type.
- There are three unused Gatebot light models left in the game files. One adds a light to the chest and the back of the head, one adds a similar set of lights, but with more metal around them, and the final Gatebot light puts a light with a small cable hanging off of it, made to resemble a fez, on top of the head and two lights to the ear section of the head. All of them are not used in the TF2 item database.
Trivia

- The Medic robot's wheel lacks a set of hitboxes, and instead uses the human Medic's leg hitboxes despite those not matching the robot animations.
