My question: Will a partial knee replacement disqualify me from being a military physician?
I found 0ne service indicated a prosthetic is a probable disqualifier. With physicians in such high demand...
I am prior service (Army and Marines). The replacement is from military injuries.
I currently have a Ph.D. (non-medical field) and have been an educator for 20 years at the high school and university levels but I often tell my wife I miss the military and I should have gone to medical school instead of "Ph.D. school." With my teaching career over, I am looking for the next challenge.
I thought I would post here and see what information I can gather while I wait to hear back from some recruiters.
Any advice/direction is appreciated.
