U.S. Navy Doctor Scholarship Program

Navy Doctor

Becoming a doctor is one of the most challenging paths you can choose for yourself. You have to want it, and to know why you want it: to help people, to heal sickness and cure disease, to solve medical mysteries and make scientific discoveries. The reasons for becoming a doctor are noble, but there are plenty of distractions once you hit the real world.

Running your own office means watching insurance reimbursement rates dwindle while exorbitant malpractice insurance premiums skyrocket, all while dealing with healthcare industry red tape and staffing. But as a Navy Physician, all those nuisances are handled for you—from cutting through the red tape to covering the expenses—so you can focus on what really matters: treating the Sailors and Marines who keep our country safe and the families who support them.

Navy Physicians also:

• Earn excellent compensation in an established, thriving practice
• Experience manageable patient ratios for high-quality, one-on-one care
• Receive hands-on experience and Navy-funded advanced training
• Enjoy a flexible schedule that leaves more time for family and personal pursuits
