You can be an astronaut doctor at nasa. Like a third of astronauts are physicians.

If they go through with Space Force (and why not, since Russia and China have similar entities), there's a strong possibility it will be under the aegis of the already existing USAF Space Command, maybe reorganized with the aerospace operations of the Army and, to a greater degree, Navy. Some civilian space programs will probably get tucked under there too.
Point being, USAF already has physicians who specialize in aerospace medicine, and if they get a Space Force (or more probably Space Corps), then you will have an opportunity after you become an Air Force doctor.
But a USAF doc attached to space command...that's what Dr. Bellows in "I Dream of Jeanie" was. Is that who you wanna be? A really Freudian weirdo who hasn't noticed that your subject's girlfriend is magic, after how many seasons, even spanning the leap from black-and-white to color TV? 😉

I mean, joining the Air Force doesn't mean you get to fly on fighter jets. It means you get to do residency in Dayton.
It depends on your midichlorian count. Min: 20,000 or gtfo

Astronaut doctor? Just need to be this guy...
Astronaut Candidate Jonny Kim
Think his midichlorian count is like a million. Plus he could actually be a door gunner for the space shuttle...

Holy hell
Navy seal, Harvard Med graduate, and now astronaut. Three things that exceedingly few individuals will ever accomplish, let alone all three. Only explanation is Jedi
