* The intro movie for ''VideoGame/{{Syndicate}}'' shows the Vitruvian Device, which holds someone in a ring and can perform surgery instantly, which in the video is used to replace a leg with a cybernetic version in less time than it took for you to read this sentence.

** Also in the second game, the doctor in the slums of Vault City mostly relies on an Autodoc that he received from the citizens in Vault City. It is, perhaps unsurprisingly given the practices of the citizens, malfunctioning, and cannot be used for anything more than basic healing, and the doctor isn't sufficiently trained enough to fix it. If ''you'' manage to fix it, however, it will be fully-functional. And you will piss off the citizens of Vault City.

* ''VideoGame/DeusEx'' features healing robots that can heal the player fully without using resources and can perform surgery to install augmentations. Notably, Deus Ex is on a much lower-tech level than most examples, taking place in 2052, with the only other technological advancement over the 2000s being limited human augmentation and attack robots.

Notably, Deus Ex is on a much lower-tech level than most examples, taking place in 2052, with the only other technological advancement over the 2000s being limited human augmentation and attack robots. The presence of doctors near the robots implies that the robots aren't able to treat everything, and the JC Denton's ability to use them for healing and surgery may be due to his use of nano-augmentations.


Added DiffLines:

* ''VideoGame/Doom2016'' has small machines that you can put your arm in to get fully healed with an apparently unpleasant injection of some kind of fluid, which also show up (rarely) in ''VideoGame/DoomEternal''. Given that the Doom Slayer also heals by tearing apart his enemies, it could be inferred that his healing factor is much better than a baseline human. The auto-injectors also include a note that people shouldn't use it repeatedly, or ''at all'' if they can help it.
