Did you know that it's possible to practice as a ski-doctor, responsible for the care and evacuation of patients from the mountains? Or that you can work as a dive-medic on deep-sea diving expeditions? Perhaps you can see yourself as the medic on standby for an ultra-marathon through the Gobi desert, or for a TV crew filming in the Amazon? Where people go, medicine must follow. Your medical degree will teach you all you need to know about practicing medicine in the hospital or primary care environment, but what about when you're outside your comfort zone? When you don't have all the equipment you need to support you? The Bristol University Wilderness Medicine Society works with students outside the standard curriculum, we want to get you exploring and practicing medicine in challenging environments. From physiology and first aid, to mountain rescue and evacuation, we'll help teach you the skills necessary to succeed in these roles and explore the potential career paths you may otherwise never know existed.

We are a friendly group of students aiming to help make surgery a more accessible career. We organise lots of socials, networking events, informative talks and this year, we are introducing a new buddy system to help younger years get more 1-to-1 support. Hope to see you at our next event!
