To be a neurosurgeon, one must earn a medical degree from an accredited medical school such as a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) degree, a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree, or a Bachelor of Medicine/Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS/MBChB) degree. After earning one of these recognized medical degrees, residency training in neurosurgery must be completed and board certification exams successfully passed. Medical school (in the United states at least) is four years and residency training in neurosurgery may be up to 7 years.
