It depends on the size of the ship. In the US Navy cruisers, destroyers and frigates normally do not have a doctor on board, they will have a couple of corpsman, sort of super EMTs, to stabilize individuals until they can be medi-vaced to a ship or shore station with a hospital.

Many of the larger amphibious ships and all the air craft carriers will have doctors and dentists aboard.
