I have a couple of questions about practicing family medicine in the navy:
1. I have been told by some that Navy FP programs teach heavy in proceedures. Surgery, scopes, etc.. Is this true, and do you get a chance later in operational billets, clinics, or elsewhere to maintain these skills?
2. Are there any FP residency programs that may be more family friendly than others?
3. Has anyone done a tour overseas as a FP doc?
Thanks a bunch
