Hey everyone,
I've been a long time reader of your treads and posts and ultimately have been unable to form a coherent opinion and thought process on whether I wish to obtain a military scholarship. It seems to me that the negative posts on this forum tend to be from Airforce members, or ex-members, who had trouble with adequate case-loads. The majority of times these individuals tend to be surgeons. I, on the other hand, am not interested in Air force Surgery, but am more interested in Navy Emergency Medicine/ Anesthesiology/ Radiology (The so called life-style friendly specialties, I do want time with my family.) I was just hoping to get some opinions from those who are involved with the path that I am looking to travel down. GMO tour's actually sound very interesting to me, I like adventure, and I really don't mind a few years of now making hundreds of thousands of dollars (I'm actually worried about making that much money lol). If any have comments about how they feel Air force Medicine and Navy Medicine will be similiar those will also be very much appreciated. I really hope that this thread does not turn into another straight up military medicine bash (Although i recognize there may be very good reasons for that). Thank you,
