Chloe Busse of Uhland is one of 14 future physicians from the Class of 2025 at New York Institute of Technology medical school, specifically the College of Osteopathic Medicine, who have matched into U.S. military residencies.
Busse will complete an Operational Emergency Medicine residency with the U.S. Air Force at the University of Arizona College of Medicine in Tucson, Arizona.
After graduating from medical school, physicians in the United States must complete a residency training program, obtain a medical license and become board-certified in a specialty. Medical students committed to military service complete their residency as armed forces members.
Military physicians serve in the medical corps of the U.S. Air Force, Army or Navy, where they practice in a range of specialties, from psychiatry and urology to family medicine, anesthesiology, pediatrics and others. These clinicians work in various settings, including hospital ships, military bases and international medical centers, where they treat military personnel and their families. In addition, as commissioned military officers, they are called upon to provide care in high-pressure situations, including combat battles, disaster relief missions and humanitarian efforts.
