I'm just wondering if doctors will be getting moody and creating artifact splints and artifact pressure dressings or whatever the hell...

Urist McDoctor has been taken by a macabre mood.

...

... a dwarf bone splint. All craftdwarfship is of the highest quality. Adorned with hanging rings of dwarf leather, it menaces with spikes of soap.

That's it.
Doctor McMuffin is taken by a fell mood.
Doctor McMuffin kills Ewan McRedshirt.
Doctor McMuffin fashions an exceptional bandage for McGuffin. On it are pictures of goblins and dwarves. The goblins are shooting the dwarves. This refers to the near death of McGuffin when a goblin shot him with a crossbow.
...
McGuffin is healed.
The exceptional bandage is removed, Doctor McMuffin flys into a fit of rage.
Doctor McMuffin kills McGuffin.
McGuffin is buried in a fell casket. On it are pictures of doctors and dwarves. The doctors are killing the dwarves.

On the splint there is an image of Dwarf in Dwarf Chunks. The dwarf is in a fetal position.

Dwarves could sign each other's casts in something like engraving. That would be interesting.

WAIT!
If a cast is masterwork quality... Then the dwarves would never want to take it off! They'd wear their bandages forever rather than damage them by cutting them off.
On the upside, we no longer need a legendary dining room. They can admire their catheters.

I love how in the dry run, the doctor inspected himself instead of the patient.  "Well, I don't know about you, but I feel great!  Buck up me'boy, it's too nice a day to sulk about."

But yes, this is totally awesome.  With all this new room/item/worker/skills interaction going on, healthcare will be the new cornerstone industry of dwarf fortresses for a while.  Can't wait to see it all extended out to other jobs, but for now, DF is going to look a lot like Theme Hospital.

Oh god, if dwarves start getting nauseous....mexican waves of vomit spiralling around the underhalls. :o
Oh, come on now.  Dwarves won't look so disgusting people will vomit at the sight of them.

Oh.  I think you mean "nauseated."  :)

What about when I mod in an illness that causes uncontrollable projectile vomiting, is highly contagious and is transmitted through vomit?

Only if you use the Throwing rules for the vomit projectiles.

Yeah, if a soldier had a Masterwork splint applied to their fracture, the doctor would tantum and destroy his hospital if it was ever removed.

You mean Dwarven Steroids?
I thought dwarves where already 'roided-up. Which would explain the omnipresent beards.
So a Legendary Doctor would apply Steroid2s.
This just might work!

All the theme hospital references...
When will Toady implement the anti/vermin shotgun?
Or portable magma bombs...
Actually, the shotgun in a fortress...
Urist cancels job; interupted by =Floating Shotgun=!
Urist has gone berserk!
Urist mcIgor, doctor, has been struck down.

And speaking of doctors, when is somebody going to mod in Gallifreyans?

And then there´s the whole Frankensteining, maybe as an init setting?
