Officers who are shot while wearing body armor generally suffer extensive bruising. There can also be damage to internal organs, depending on the size and speed of the bullet and the location of the strike.

Can a officer of the law be present in exam room?

If the person being treated is under arrest - yes. If the exam is for purposes of collecting evidence (rape kit - removing a bullet - etc) - then the officer's presence is more problematic. Some medical facilities and doctors prefer to have the officer present to preserve "the chain of evidence" (a legal requirement neceessary to prove the case in court) which then negates them having to be subpoena'd to court to testify that it was they, in fact, who administered the test or removed the bullet, and then turned the results over to the officer.
