What are the responsibilities and job description for the Part-Time Navy Physician position at US Navy Reserve?
Serve Your Country as a Part-Time Physician
This part-time physician position does not require relocation. As a Navy commissioned physician, you will attend to service members and their families in much the same way a civilian doctor would. You will enjoy an accelerated career track, with opportunities to take part in humanitarian relief efforts stateside and around the world.
- 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
As a Navy Physician and Officer in the Navy Medical Corps, you will help lead the highly respected Navy healthcare team as you provide high-quality medical care for Sailors, Marines, service members, their families, and, when called upon, humanity at large. You will handle everything a typical physician does, such as diagnosing ailments, treating injuries, and saving lives.
- Work at the best military medical facilities on shore, at sea, and in the field
- Join with top healthcare professionals on the highly valued Navy healthcare team
- Collaborate with fellow military doctors and other healthcare officers, and partner with International Relief Teams and organizations

Serving part-time as a Reservist, your duties will be carried out during your scheduled drilling and training periods.
