Good evening.
I am considering USAF HPSP. However, upon thinking a bit harder, I realized I would really only be happy with one outcome: General Surgery / Emergency Medicine residency, followed by time split between air force base practice peppered with deployments on a Critical Care Air Transport Team (CCATT) or Special Operations Surgical Team (SOST).
I don't see any other outcomes with which I would be happy as a physician / surgeon in the military. How unrealistic is it for me to be this dead-set? And, does anybody have suggestions for alternative paths?
Thank you very much.
