Medical school is 4 years for all physicians. Cardiology fellowship ranges from 3-4 years post-medical school in the United States.

After med school - 3 or 4 years surgical residency, and then at least 2 more to specialize in cardiac work.

So 12 to high school, 16 to collage, 20 to MD, plus 6 more (at least).
