"I was nervous coming into this course. Survival prep is not something I'm comfortable with. However, all the learning, instructors and simulations made me feel ready for an emergency in the field."
"It was so much fun and I learned countless ways to start fires, and take care of myself and others in emergency situations while hiking or camping. I feel so much more prepared to go out into the wild on my own or with my family and friends. You should try it out!
"Dr. Tan seemed to be always delighted to teach and I felt very engaged during any lesson he gave. At first, I was very scared of the medical part but he made me feel supported. We were encouraged to ask a lot of questions and that gave me courage for the whole course. His presence and guidance in the scenarios calmed me down very much. with Dr. Tan, I got the feeling his students' well-being and their ability to thrive meant everything to him."

All You Have To Do Is Say, "Yes" And These Gifts Are Yours... For FREE!
A: YES! You are literally getting 6 courses bundled into one - Basic Survival, Intermediate Survival, Advanced Survival, Wilderness First Aid, Wilderness First Responder, and Wilderness Medicine. Each course on their own ranges from $997 to $4000, a total value of over $12,297 (and that’s only for 1 person training, not the whole family)!
A: No, we will teach you the concepts and skills needed to survive so you can modify your existing clothes, tools, and supplies. By the end of the training you will know how to walk into the woods naked and capable of making all the tools you need to thrive.
A: Though there are certain items that I do recommend you buy directly from official vendors, like a tourniquet, pressure bandages, hemostatic agents, and chest seals, there are other items that can be bought from any vendor (including first-aid kits you already have).
A: We do not sell equipment yet. But are currently working with several companies to provide both medical and survival gear to our students as part of their membership.
A: Yes, you can email Dr. Tan directly at teimojin@survivaldoctors.com for any custom requests. Also, there will be options in the future to opt-in to weekend training sessions and weeklong expeditions with Dr. Tan and his inner-circle instructors.
A: You will get to see techniques from different angles via video but also have an opportunity to submit your videos for direct feedback from Dr. Tan and other instructors to ensure you are performing all the tasks correctly. Any questions you may have may also be answered during our live Q&A sessions too!
A: YES! We encourage you to complete the course with your family and membership is made for parents and their children.
A: Members will be able to get their Wilderness First Aid (WFA) certification at no additional cost upon completion of the relevant medical modules and scoring over 70% on the written test. We are also looking at getting more certifications for our students that will be included with their membership.
A: This course curriculum is actually a fraction of the in-person course costs and allows students to revisit topics and access Dr. Tan’s expertise indefinitely. Our weekend in-person training is $997 and typically do not offer monthly payment programs. This membership allows you access to over $10,000 of knowledge and training for only $97/mo ($47 for founding members!) and even less with yearly pricing.
A: Each milestone is modeled off of our in-person training courses. Some milestones, like our “Scout” survival training, are 4 days in-person with about 12 hours a day of content and exercises, while others like our Survival Medicine curriculum can take 7-10 days, studying and practicing 12 hours a day. Thus, the very motivated student may be able to get through a new milestone in 4-10 days if they were to study and practice the whole day. A good pace to go for is 4-6 modules (4-8 hours) a month with dedicated practice, which could take students several months to complete the whole curriculum.
A: No! Whether you are experienced or just getting ready for your first outdoor adventure, this curriculum is meant to give you the knowledge, skills, tools, and confidence to survive and save lives in any environment.
A: This is something that we are working on for our medical professionals and will be offering retrospectively!
