How long does it take to become an otolaryngologist?

Answer 1

Med school plus about 3 years residency.

Actually, you must complete a four year college, attend medical school, complete a five year residency, which is consisted of one year of general surgical training and four years of Otolaryngology study/training, and following that you may choose to specialize in a sub-specialty. You also qualify to take a rigorous examination divided into two parts, a written and oral examination, to legally practice in the field of Otolaryngology.

Further more, this is a long practice and takes a great amount of commitment to the study.

And because of the length of study the cost of school is not cheap, but the annual salary of a certified Otolaryngologist is so worth the time, effort, and preceding expense.
