Hello all,
I have recently been hearing quite a bit about National Health Service Physician Loan repayment (not scholarship) from some of my classmates. I see that there is a 2 year commitment and they pay up to 25,000 per year of loan repayment. Have any of you that are currently attendings or graduating residents considered this? Do you find any advantages to this over taking a job that offers no loan repayment? I'm just going to be starting fm residency in july so it's a couple years away before I have to think about this stuff, but just wondered if anyone has an first hand experience with it.
