Answer:

Tertiary prevention.

Explanation:

Tertiary prevention is when a wound or illness is already there but the focus is on limiting or reducing the effect from getting worse. This is done to improve the life quality and reduce the possibility of the wound or sickness worsening.

In the given scenario, the doctors' efforts tending to Gary's injuries by treating the serious injury first is a tertiary preventive measure. This is done so that the worse injury will be stopped so that it will be safer to treat the other wounds and also enable Gary's injuries to be 'treated'.
