Not eligible: Go Coast Guard Healthcare "Through a combination of direct employment and partnership with the U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS), the Coast Guard employs board certified/board eligible primary care physicians who are typically residency-trained in family medicine, internal medicine, or emergency medicine. Positions also exist in psychiatry, aerospace, occupational, preventive medicine, and pediatrics."Hello all. Seeking advice.
What are options for a licensed physician without BE/BC joining a branch of the military (specifically the CG)?
Age requirements? Where are you stationed (I assume where there is need-- but what have your experiences been?)? What is the time commitment? What are the loan repayment options? What are the pros, cons, and unasked questions to be aware of?
This is for an American citizen, no prior military background.
lol, nice edit.So to be clear, they should not consider applying military to be a physician? The main concern I think would be the loan burden.
