Medic Corps

The is a subdivision of Konohagakure's medical-nin organisation and hospital. Their roles are similar to those of field medical-nin in that they are deployed to aid the comrades in the fields. However, unlike field medical-nin that normally get assigned to a team like Sakura Haruno for example, they move in an independent team comprised solely of medical-nin. These shinobi are under the directions of captains, one of whom was stated to have found Kabuto Yakushi after the Battle of Kikyō Pass. Medic Corps shinobi can be seen throughout the Chūnin Exams; a team was also sent after the Sasuke Retrieval Team.
