Medic Robots appear in Mann vs. Machine as enemies. When spawned, their secondary weapon will always be trained on another robot, usually a giant, and will only heal that robot until it is destroyed, whereupon it will find another robot to heal.

These Medics don't appear often as other robots, but when they do, they usually accompany Giant Robots, sometimes even as many as twelve Medics on one Giant. Über Medics are equipped with a Syringe Gun, Medi Gun, and Bonesaw. They spawn with full ÜberCharge and will deploy their charges on whatever robot they are healing as soon as the Medic or patient takes significant damage, althought it is both possible and often desirable to inflict enough damage in a single attack to kill the Medic without giving them a chance to deploy their Übercharge. There are two kinds of this robot: one has a very fast heal rate, and the other has a much faster charge rate, but a slower heal rate and an ÜberCharge that lasts three seconds shorter. When Medic robots are separated from their heal target or cornered by a player, they will fight with their Syringe Guns and look for their patient.

Quick-Fix Medics heal teammates much faster than Über Medics but have a very slow ÜberCharge rate, and are also equipped with a Syringe Gun and Bonesaw. They tend to appear in larger numbers than Über Medics. A second variant of Quick-Fix Medic only has a standard heal and ÜberCharge rate.

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 players can inflict. It spawns with a full Übercharge meter, and has a considerable amount of health, second only to Giant Heavies, "boss" giants, and Tanks. When the Giant Medic is heavily damaged, it may deploy its Ubercharge, completely refilling its health and essentially becoming indestructible until the charge is finished.

Although it doesn't have an Übercharge, it will regenerate health slowly, which can allow it to recover a large amount of health if left to do so.
