How long to be a pediatric Otolaryngologist?

Answer 1

After high school and an undergraduate degree, you must complete a minimum of 4 years of medical school, followed by a minimum of 5 years of an Otolaryngology residency. After that, you can manage many pediatric problems, but most people who are considered "Pediatric Otolaryngologists" have undergone 1 or 2 more years of specialty fellowship training to let them treat the entire range of often complicated pediatric conditions. This training usually allows the physician to be competent at a variety of complicated surgeries, including airway reconstructions and cochlear implantation.
