    The cat doctor wins on account of being able to swear. But Dr. Culber gets bonus points for sarcastically delivering medical care on occasion.

    Crusher was only terrible to Q, who very much had it coming. And it was funny when she called him a pain in the ass.

    Culber is the real sleeper here because he’ll deal stealth emotional damage. That sweet smile, those deep eyes, and then he says the most snarky, sarcastic shit you can imagine given the situation. This is the only way to tame Stamets after all.

    Toss up between EMH and T’Ana, really, but I’d say T’Ana has more lovable burnout energy that the crew vibe with, where the EMH is just kind of a dick. I love him, he’s one of my favorite characters in all of Trek, but his bedside manner makes him a huge pain in the ass for anyone normal to work with. The people who got along best with him are Seven, who basically had high-functioning autism implants from the Borg, and Kes, who was, by and large, incapable of being mad. Janeway dealt with him fine because she just never took any shit from him as a matter of policy, and the only other person he vibed hard with was a fucking serial killer. Tom Paris, who stands out for being by far the biggest normie on Voyager, couldn’t stand the EMH (though he also hated sick bay).

    So, gotta go with EMH having the worst bedside manner.

    Cat doctor from Lower Decks might cough up a hairball inside your phaser wound. On purpose.

    Though considering Paul F. Thompkins plays the other doctor (the bird dude), he might be worse. We just never see him doing any doctor shit.

    Also: What the hell are their names?! I’m so bad at remembering all the character’s names from LD. I only ever remember Boimler’s.
