I just recently went on the MED Vip trip. It is a great opportunity for you to get to know what it is like to work for the Navy. We got to tour two ships, and go to the hospitals where the docs work. We met two physicians in two different specialities who had very different experiences in the Navy, one positive, one not so positive(and they were honest about their reasons). After perusing on this forum for quite a bit, I formulated questions of my own to ask, which they answered. Than we got to tour the hospitals and see the working environment.
We also got to meet residents that had been through GMO tours, and residents that had gone through straight through training, and hear about the disadvantages and advantages.
Obviously the Navy is trying to recruit you when you are going on one of these trips, so you get a nice hotel room and all three meals covered, in which dinner for both nights(it was 3 day 2 night trip) was quite extravagant in the heart of San Diego at Gas Lamp!
I met quite of few people and got even quite close with them. We shared about our lousy experiences with our recruiteres and the pros and cons of working for the military, especially with the Navy.
Overall it was an informative trip with some nice benefits whether you decide to join or not.
If you have any specific questions, feel free to PM me.
I definitely recommend this trip to anyone considering doing Navy Med.
