Sorta? It'd depend on the RPer and the people being RPed with.
I certainly wouldn't be able to talk about any type of injury like a doctor or surgeon might, but I have to be able to RP healing it. It helps if something can be abstracted into smaller parts that I am able to discuss. Getting into gritty details? I'll leave that to my typing ability and imagination.
I'd assume it works similarly for others. If there's something somebody wants to RP, chances are, they're RPing it. Some people like to do research into a field they're new to and others will type based on what they know. As long as the RPer is happy and the scene seems to be moving along, I'm generally happy to go with it. And hey, if someone's talking about something I know about and they're looking to learn more, I can possibly point them in the right direction if they're interested.
