Military Medicine

Rear Adm. Kevin J. Brown, a family medicine specialist and commander of Naval Medical Forces Atlantic, visited The University of Toledo on Friday, Sept. 27, to speak with students about health profession opportunities in the U.S. Navy. A northwest Ohio native, Brown earned a bachelor's degree in biology from UToledo and went on to study medicine at the former Medical College of Ohio via the Navy's Health Professional Scholarship Program.

The military scholarship program is open to students studying to be a physician, dentist, optometrist, physician assistant or clinical psychologist. Those accepted receive full support for up to four years of tuition and fees in return for a commitment to serve as a commissioned officer after graduation.

The presentation was organized by the UToledo Pre-Health Advising Center.
