I've done a search on SDN but i came up with strange uninformative results. Can anyone provide me with some information on the specialty or sub-specialty of Wilderness medicine?
From what i've gathered it's a sub-specialty of EM. I've seen several elective courses that offer it and Stanford has a program. Does anyone else know anything about this "field."
For example, which residency programs offer courses in this sub specialty. Are there any specific residency programs that offer wilderness medicine as a specialty? Could one perhaps make a career out of Wilderness Medicine? If so, what would the career consist of(salary, lifestyle...etc)?
Thanks!
