the degree the is needed to become an neurologist is a diploma in psychological medicine
Sigmund Freud studied medicine at the University of Vienna and obtained a medical degree in 1881.
If the theology degree was obtained from an accredited college or university, you may or may not have taken sufficient science courses to ready you for medical school; odds are that you have not. Therefore, you would likely have to obtain those credits and that background. You would then have to apply to medical school, complete the curriculum successfully, and thereafter do your internship/residency in neurology.
Obtained a degree.
Neurology careers can be listed from least to most formal education as follows: a neurodiagnostic technologist typically requires an associate degree or certification; a registered nurse (RN) specializing in neurology generally needs a bachelor's degree in nursing; a physician assistant (PA) in neurology usually requires a master's degree; and neurologists must complete a medical degree followed by a residency in neurology, totaling around 13 years of post-secondary education and training.
Freud received his MD in 1881 (University of Vienna). No PhD, he was a medical doctor (neurology).

The highest education degree I have obtained is a Ph.D.
The title given to someone who has obtained a master's degree is "Master."
No it does not. Once you have obtained a degree, it stays a degree forever.
A degree can be obtained in 1-4 years depending on the type of degree. Either an associates or bachelors degree can be obtained.
Seeing that you have to have a bachelor's degree, that's 4 years already. Then, you have to be accepted into medical school & earn a medical degree (another 4 years), which is a general degree you can use to specialize in any area. Since neurology would be your specialty, most places require you to endure two years of residency in your chosen field.
It depends on where the degree was obtained and the accreditation of that school.
