Seeking fully trained US board-eligible/certified and licensed General Surgeons for part-time opportunities in Navy Reserve Medicine. (Various onsite positions throughout the United States at Navy installations; no remote positions.)

Navy Reserve Medicine offers opportunities for General Surgeons to serve part-time while maintaining their civilian practice. Navy surgeons typically enjoy an accelerated career track, with opportunities to care for the medical needs of service members and their families. It’s a great responsibility—and an honor—of the highest order. The rewards for meeting such challenges are, of course, also great.

As a Navy Reserve Officer, you’ll have the opportunity to see the world. You serve your country part-time, and stay true to yourself. Drill one weekend per month locally, plus one two-week period annually. You may also participate in humanitarian relief efforts both stateside and internationally, collaborating with fellow military doctors and organizations such as FEMA, USAID, and Project Hope.

Navy healthcare offers the ability to focus on medicine in state-of-the-art facilities, without the financial and administrative burdens of private practice. Start-up costs, malpractice insurance, staffing, equipment, and office management are provided.

• Potential for up to $75,000 per year bonus or $40,000 per year in school loan repayment (up to $250,000 CAP) for part-time (Reserve) duty
• Active Duty opportunities also available, with potential bonuses up to $600,000 for full-time positions
• No involuntary deployment for 3 years
• Dependent Identification Cards providing access to commissary, exchange, and recreation facilities
• Serviceman’s Group Life Insurance – $500,000 for reservists
• Dental Insurance – Tricare Dental for you and your family with low premiums
• Health Insurance – Tricare Reserve Select for you and your family with low premiums
• Thrift Savings Plan – a tax-deferred retirement savings plan
• Access to base facilities, recreational facilities, and exchanges
• Travel Space Available on military aircraft from certain bases at low cost
• Retirement benefits after 20 years of service at military retirement age
• Post 9/11 GI Bill educational benefits
• Home Loan Guarantee Program after 6 years of service
