Hi Everyone,

I'm in medical school and was looking at applying for the army as a medical officer. I have spoken to multiple people going through training and a few mates a few years ahead in uni and everyone speaks positively about it.

I was wondering what the consultant lifestyle is like especially for hospital specialties? I understand they are based in certain hospitals with military units but how flexible are they if they would like to relocate or even if they want to practice privately?

Thanks you!

Hi I will be coming down to Birmingham in July for work experience in the QE hospital. I'm over 18 on gap year for studying medicine and got this shadowing experience in the hospital. It will be for a week so too expensive getting hotel and the drive isn't feasible because am coming down from the northwest. Would be thankful if someone can help and I don't mind paying a reasonable price and obviously would cover a night out!

Thank you
