So, Captain Janeway, who up until this point has held fast and true to the principles and rules of Starfleet to the point where she's given up opportunities to get her crew back home, suddenly here takes the attitude of "we're a long way from Starfleet" and decides the rules don't need to apply in this situation.
Character consistency, writers. It matters. Don't destroy your creations because you can't fit your story to them.
Otherwise, the stuff with the Doctor was good fun, but the episode doesn't really give us a conclusion to his situation - is his memory gone or going to slowly come back? Will he be completely back to normal next episode (this is Voyager, so yes). It doesn't seem like the writers could be bothered to tell us.
