📖 Key Information

Surgeon general (pl.: surgeons general) is a title used in several Commonwealth countries and most NATO nations to refer either to a senior military medical officer or to a senior uniformed physician commissioned by the government and entrusted with public health responsibilities. The title originated in the 17th century, as military units acquired their own physicians. In the United Kingdom, the Surgeon General is the professional head of the military medical services and carries the rank of rear admiral, major general, or air vice marshal.
