Navy Physician:

Duties and responsibilities:

Navy physicians attend to service members and their families in much the same way a civilian doctor would do.

They work at top military medical facilities and are privy to advanced training and technology so progressive the civilian world may not be aware of it yet.

Be willing to serve for a minimum of 2 years of active duty, learn the requirements, contact a navy recruiter, ask about financial assistance for medical school, apply to attend medical school, attend officer development school, and get assigned.
