Has anyone here commissioned in the military for a health professions scholarship? Just got a flyer from the Navy about getting dental school paid for, which would make me in a lot less debt.

Why did you do it? Do you not realise that you can easily pay off your debt within 5 years of working as a physician? Is it not more difficult to find a job after leaving the military?

Everyone has their reasons. You speak like a physician ever has a hard time finding a job? If you are the OP I would recommend you find a different path than HPSP if you are already against it before going in.

My cousin did it. He ended up being head of pulmonary surgery at Walter Reed. I'm not sure what the offers are today, but he regretted it in the long run, especially once he started a family.

Moving hospital to hospital on your own isn't the same as being moved around with your unit. Internal Medicine wouldn't be too bad if you were a hospitalist or something...

Also I am very interested in this subject particularly how I would get to work as a dentist in the military since this year I will be finishing dental uni.
Is there any way to get in because i was thinking to join the militarily anyway,working what i studied for would be a big bonus.

Lol.

Not him, but 4 years and done, college paid for. And I was infantry so I had to use my GI Bill, some specialized pogs can land jobs better than yours straight out of the military.

Enjoy those student loans, or mommy and daddy paid for you, welfare brat.

I had this debate when I went into medical school. You need to give a year for a year. When you add it up you might as well go full career at that point. Military docs rank quickly, for what it's worth.

Why not just move to Germany for a college education or masters degree if you apparantly don't mind potentially going overseas for a few years anyway? You're a lot less likely to get shot in Germany than in the US militairy... Or the US in general.

Why are people so angry towards the military? I mean, I get it, It's anonymous, post what you want. It's just that people like this guy had to be so bothered by the fact that this guy was in the military, that he overcame his apathy enough to formulate a response 4 fucking times.

Hey OP,

So, I looked at taking an HSPS for medical school and decided against it. It's a great deal if you're concerned about debt/want to practice as a general practicioner (ie. you don't want to be an oral surgeon).

Additionally, check out the guard - at least for the Army they have a repayment program (after you've taken on loans) that's actually pretty good and allows you to take a civilian residency.

I'm not 100% sure that dentistry students take residencies, but, it'll be a good option if you do take them.

What year are you? I'm an MS1 and I was looking at the HSPS.

>>27731098
It's good for specific specialities that are almost impossible to get in the civilian world - Optho + Ortho come to mind. Then again, it only really benefits people who have previous service.

>>27731370
This guy's got it precisely - the cash is better as a civilian, but, they have less opportunities to do trauma/war medicine during wartime. Peacetime medicine isn't as fun.

I didn't waste 4 years of my life. It was a 4 year adventure. I've been to Iraq, Afghanistan, been and done things and places the kids in MEG crave so badly. Made friends for life that are as close as my family.

Got my bachelors, sweet ass job, debt free. Don't be upset I lived my life better than you.
