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 position allows you to serve your country while maintaining your civilian practice. As a Navy commissioned physician, you will attend to service members and their families in much the same way a civilian doctor would.
Our physicians enjoy an accelerated career track, with opportunities to take part in humanitarian relief efforts stateside and around the world. They work at top military medical facilities and are privy to advanced training and technology so progressive, it may not be available in the civilian world yet.
Navy healthcare offers the ability to focus on the finer points of medicine without the financial and business complications of private practice. You will not have to worry about start-up costs, malpractice insurance, staffing, equipment, or office management.
- 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.
You can move beyond routine by:
- Working at the best military medical facilities on shore, at sea, and in the field
- Joining with top healthcare professionals on the highly valued Navy healthcare team
- Collaborating with fellow military doctors and other healthcare officers, and partnering with International Relief Teams and organizations, such as FEMA, USAID, and Project Hope
- Operating as a leader within your focus area and getting exposure outside your specialty
- Gaining management experience that will serve you well throughout your career
Your duties as a Reservist will be carried out during your scheduled drilling and training periods. During monthly drilling, Physicians in the Navy Reserve typically work at a location close to their homes. This gives you the flexibility to expand your medical experience in the Navy without compromising your civilian practice at home.
