Yasemin’s Answer

Hi Ashley! To be a physician you would have to go to 4 years of college and obtain a Bachelor's then 4 years of medical school. Afterwards would be residency and speciality. Residency and speciality is about 7 years I believe. You will be completing a residency training in neurological surgery (5 or more years) and 1 year of general surgery and then a training for pediatric neurosurgery. Hope this helps!

Best of luck!
