If your friend is injured and can't go to hospital, why not make hospital come to you? Kidnap a doctor and force him to treat your friend. This plot can be seen from both sides. The doctor may be a protagonist and his kidnappers are bad guys, most likely criminals. Or the hero may be the kidnapper because he is on the run from the law (perhaps he is a Vigilante Man in distress) and can't get help officially. Patient-Doctor relationship adds additional complexity to the story. The doctor may suffer Conflicting Loyalties: on one side, he has to report his actions (specially if he's treating a gunshot injury), but on the other, the Hippocratic Oath would require him to help as best as he can. Being outside a hospital may make things more complicated, as the doctor does not have access to his regular tools and may have to resort to a lot of MacGyvering to compensate. And, of course, there's also the risk that the criminals may decide to Leave No Witnesses once the doctor has outlived his usefulness. Compare Back-Alley Doctor, for doctors who are not dragged into this situation, but actually work that way in a regular basis. A Kidnapped Scientist is similarily kidnapped by the bad guys to make the science work that the bad guys do not understand. |

Predators seems to do this with Edwin, who initially appears to be a hapless human doctor kidnapped by the Predators to act as medic for the assorted human killers and make the hunt more challenging. However, he turns out to be a serial killer with a fondness for poisons — as well as a doctor. | |

Heralds of Valdemar: In Owlsight, Ghost Cat clan comes to Valdemar in search of the legendary Valdemaran Healers for their sick children, and were prepared to kidnap some if other methods of getting a Healer to accompany them didn't work. Several Healers get into an argument over whether Healer's Oath demands they head off to the Ghost Cat encampment despite the risk of kidnapping. | |

In Star Trek: Enterprise, the Klingons kidnap Dr. Phlox to force him to work on their Super-Soldier program, which has run into a few setbacks. Because Klingon Scientists Get No Respect their medical knowledge is not as advanced as that of other planets, but their own doctors can't just ask for help because the Warrior Caste would see it as being weak, dishonorable and exposing their vulnerabilities to their enemies. It doesn't appear to have occurred to the kidnappers that abducting someone at gunpoint and then giving them access to samples of what was supposed to be a Beneficial Disease but turned out to have dangerous side effects could backfire... It backfires. Phlox succeeds in creating an effective treatment, then deliberately causes an outbreak of the disease among his captors and forces them to release him in return for telling them how he did it. | |

Honor Harrington: In Storm from the Shadows, during the post-Battle of Monica standoff, Monican authorities demand Terekhov let them evacuate "ill" personnel from a space station. Terekhov suspects this is a bluff (and he's right), but doesn't want to send a medical team to the station — even if the illness is real, the Monicans are certain to take the Manticoran doctors prisoner. | |

Blue Ramun: Played straight, inverted, downplayed, and zig-zagged all over the place in the span of Chapter 9. A doctor with the fantasy equivalent of a revoked doctor's license kidnaps a terminally ill patient and another doctor with healing powers — not to force the kidnapped doctor to treat the patient, but to kill the kidnapped doctor and harvest his body's innate healing powers for an experimental treatment. A third doctor with healing powers is led away from her practice under false pretense by the kidnapper, who intends to force her to kill the kidnapped doctor, brew up the experimental treatment, and test it on the terminally ill patient. | |

The Indian in the Cupboard has an unusual variant — the eponymous cupboard can bring plastic figures to life by transporting real people through time. When some of the people transported this way are injured, Omri uses the cupboard to animate a hospital nurse and a World War I combat medic to treat their wounds. | |

In Fallout: New Vegas, the Legion quest "Et Tumor, Brute?" is about finding some way to treat Caesar's brain tumor. Your options are to get some parts to repair an Auto Doc, perform surgery yourself (which will succeed with a high Medicine skill or Luck score), or make Arcade Gannon — the player companion with the best medical skill, who despises the Legion — into Caesar's slave. If you do the latter, Arcade is Driven to Suicide in the epilogue. | |

This happens a few times in Star Trek: In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The High Ground", a terrorist organization has created a device known as an inverter, which serves as an undetectable teleporter and allows them to sneak up on enemies, but also destroys their genetic code and has left several of their members bedridden. They kidnap Dr. Crusher so she can treat their sick, as well as use her as a bargaining chip. Played with in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Hippocratic Oath" when Dr. Bashir is captured by a unit of Jem'Haddar soldiers who are entirely willing to execute him on the spot until he reveals that he's a doctor. It turns out that these Jem'Haddar are renegades who are looking for a cure for the addictive substance that keeps them Slave Mooks.

In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The High Ground", a terrorist organization has created a device known as an inverter, which serves as an undetectable teleporter and allows them to sneak up on enemies, but also destroys their genetic code and has left several of their members bedridden. They kidnap Dr. Crusher so she can treat their sick, as well as use her as a bargaining chip. | |
