Best Answer

At least two, and more probably three or four. You then have four years of medical school. A newly graduated (from medical school) doctor does not simply get to run out and go into business as a brain surgeon, they have to do a "residency" in their specialty. For neurosurgery, the typical length of this residency is 6 or 7 years.
