Transitioning From Active Duty Military to Medical School | Military Medicine

One of the most common questions I receive is, "How can I become a Navy doctors." This question frequently comes from enlisted service members. Fortunately, there are multiple resources available IF you know where to look.

This video is good for enlisted service members, as well as for officers looking to transfer to the Staff Corps.

Thanks Dr.Bradley for the informational video! I just graduated from college and decided to enlist into the military to raise my gpa and take prerequisites for Med school! Do you recommend going into a medical MOS and taking classes on the side? Is there some sort of bridge program if I go 68C?!

I want to join active duty as a combat medic while attending med school

Excellent video brother thanks. I often hear from people who are currently in medical school that their med school requires a bachelors degree from a state university. I understand that air force bases have community college’s on base. Im curious if I got a bachelors degree while enlisted in 4 year contract through the community college on bases would that not be acceptable not being a state college? My long term goal is to be an anesthesiologist

What’s a good job when getting into the military, I’m thinking of joining the navy and a little bit before getting my associates, what would be a good job to try and get to give me the ability to prepare to become a doctor?

Thank you for the video. I'm an active duty officer applying to medical school next year. Who would be a good point of contact to guide me through the process from going from active duty to USUHS?
