How many years does it take to become a spine surgeon?

Spine surgery is performed by doctors who have completed training in either neurosurgery or orthopedic surgery. To become a spine surgeon you must have a medical degree (8 years after high school); then complete a residency in either orthopedic surgery (5 years) or neurosurgery (6-7 years). Orthopedic surgeons who wish to specialize in spine surgery usually complete a spine fellowship following their residency, which is an additional 1 to 2 years of training. Neurosurgery residency provides adequate exposure to spine surgery, but some neurosurgeons choose to spend an additional year in spine fellowship.

So, including college, medical school, residency and fellowship it takes between 14 and 16 years of post high school education to become a spine surgeon.

There are several ways. Such as:

Ask another health care professional or doctor.

For example, you can ask your primary care physician for the names of the doctors who do this with whom s/he works regularly (and well). You can ask the nurse in your doctor's office for the names of the doctors who have this specialty. You can ask a pharmacist at the local drug store, a school nurse, etc.

Look in the phone book.

You can look in the phone book (in the US) in the "Yellow Pages" under "Physicians and Surgeons" (or something similar) and then by specialty. Also in the phone books there is usually a section that lists emergency numbers and community resources. In some locations, there may be a phone line listed for Physician Referral Services which is something that some hospitals, other institutions, local government, or community service groups provide.

Call the local hospital information line.

You can call the information line at one of the hospitals in the area. The operators who answer usually have a directory that lists the specialists who work at their hospital, and can give you the phone number to their offices or can transfer you to a department who can give you that information. You may need to help them by giving the list of possible types of specialists who work in immunology (see below), since they may not be medically trained.

The physician specialty areas that would usually have at least a partial focus on the immune system include:
