Celebrating the Nurses of Star Trek

One of the most important parts of any Starfleet vessel are the nurses who assist the Chief Medical Officer and doctors in their ongoing mission to keep the crew healthy and whole. These nurses frequently go above and beyond to care for their crew, facing off against alien viruses and strange ailments on a regular basis.

Inspired by the incredible real-life medical workers on the front lines and David Maddox’s "The Nurses of Star Trek, Ranked," here are seven of the best Star Trek nurses
