Doc Cottle is the Battlestar Galactica's irrascible Chief Medical Officer (CMO). In keeping with Sci-FI medical officers, he is somewhat eccentric - a heavy smoker, despite knowing the risks, and one not overly impressed by positions of power.
He is the third person in the fleet to learn about President [[Rosling, Laura|Laura Roslin]'s cancer condition (Act of Contrition), after Lee Adama (Bastille Day) and Billy Keikeya (Mini-Series). He has agreed to treat her condition, without revealing it to anyone else - and has further agreed to help her with more unorthodox treatments such as Kamala Extract. His most recent examinations of her confirmed that the cancer had begun to attack her lymphatic system, giving her some six months to live.
He took a personal interest in Starbuck's recovery after she broker her leg (You Can't Go Home Again), and worked with Lee Adama to get her out of sickbay (Six Degress of Separation) - without success.
Grumpy of attitude, yet always professional, Cottle instantly inspires trust, despite his attitude.
Notes[edit]
His contemporary in the original series is Salik.
