It takes about 12 years after graduating from high school:
- 4 years for college
- 4 years for medical school
- generally 4 years for residency


The steps for OB/GYN are pretty similar that of other areas of medicine--the biggest difference is in the type (and length) of residency. For more details on the other steps, take a look at these previous questions:
