To be any physician, you will spend a minimum of 11 years in school after high school. To be a surgeon, the minimum is 13 years.

Medical school takes 4 years to complete.
After medical school physicians complete a residency for additional training. These can last 3-6 years and are sometimes followed by an additional year or two of fellowship subspecialty training.
