Is it possible to join any of the services directly as a GMO? I'm considering reentering medicine after voluntarily resigning from a PGY-2 position earlier this year. I've yet to take Step 3. My PGY-1 year was in Preliminary Internal Medicine at a mid-ranked large university hospital.
My PGY-2 program was fairly highly respected, but unfortunately due to a combination of fatigue, sleep deprivation, family issues across the country, and a desire to consider returning to a previous career, I felt I should resign. I'm now considering all of my options (grad school may be necessary to reenter my previous career). If able, I'm not sure if I'd want to reenter the same field in medicine, so I wouldn't mind a couple years of general practice in the meantime. I've been considering military service for some time and may consider enlisting in another field if I don't return to medicine. I appreciate any advice you guys may have.
