Oppurtunity Details

If you’re interested on furthering your medical career, yet you thrive on challenges, learning and a little adventure, the U.S. Army Reserve could be the perfect opportunity for you. You’ll be part of an outstanding team of health care professionals from diverse disciplines and backgrounds, working in state-of-the-art facilities with the very latest technology and you’ll be serving your country.

The time you spend as an officer in the Army Reserve you are dedicating to self-improvement, learning and focused patient care. You are making a commitment to soldiers and their families that can instill an overwhelming sense of pride, as it does for the Army Reserve health care providers who provide the worldwide delivery of quality health care.

As a physician in the Army Reserve, you will train one weekend a month, two weeks a year. You may diagnose and provide treatment to a child one day, participate in a humanitarian mission or perform telemedicine in a field environment another day. Next, you may be rappelling down a cliff or supervising the setup of a mobile hospital. Whatever the challenge, you’re sure to find it a rewarding change of pace.

A second source of income never hurts, nor do the privileges that come with being a Medical Corps Officer.

While you can train near home, your total time obligation is determined on individual basis. Army Reserve physicians usually practice in medical treatment facilities and units close to home. But because we are sensitive to your personal and professional demands, we’ll work with you to ensure you are able to take advantage of all that the Army Reserve can offer. Whatever your particular needs, goals or objectives, we’ll do all we can to accommodate you and your schedule.
