Surgeons

they work with the cardiovascular and circulatory systems

Yes, one as nothing to do with the other. To become a neonatal surgeon, you first have to do your residency for 5 years as a General Surgeon. After the five years, it takes about 3 years to become a Pediatric Surgeon and then from there you can specialize as a neo-natal surgeon. Hope that this answers your questions:)

The common path to practicing as a physician requires 8 years of education beyond high school and 3 to 8 additional years of internship and residency. All States, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories license physicians. Education and training. Formal education and training requirements for physicians are among the most demanding of any occupation-4 years of undergraduate school, 4 years of medical school, and 3 to 8 years of internship and residency, depending on the specialty selected. A few medical schools offer combined undergraduate and medical school programs that last 6 years rather than the customary 8 years. Premedical students must complete undergraduate work in physics, biology, mathematics, English, and inorganic and organic chemistry. Students also take courses in the humanities and the social sciences. Some students volunteer at local hospitals or clinics to gain practical experience in the health professions. The minimum educational requirement for entry into medical school is 3 years of college; most applicants, however, have at least a bachelor's degree, and many have advanced degrees. There are 146 medical schools in the United States-126 teach allopathic medicine and award a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree; 20 teach osteopathic medicine and award the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) degree. Acceptance to medical school is highly competitive. Applicants must submit transcripts, scores from the Medical College Admission Test, and letters of recommendation. Schools also consider an applicant's character, personality, leadership qualities, and participation in extracurricular activities. Most schools require an interview with members of the admissions committee. Students spend most of the first 2 years of medical school in laboratories and classrooms, taking courses such as anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, pharmacology, psychology, microbiology, pathology, medical ethics, and laws governing medicine. They also learn to take medical histories, examine patients, and diagnose illnesses. During their last 2 years, students work with patients under the supervision of experienced physicians in hospitals and clinics, learning acute, chronic, preventive, and rehabilitative care. Through rotations in internal medicine, family practice, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry, and surgery, they gain experience in the diagnosis and treatment of illness. Following medical school, almost all M.D.s enter a residency-graduate medical education in a specialty that takes the form of paid on-the-job training, usually in a hospital. Most D.O.s serve a 12-month rotating internship after graduation and before entering a residency, which may last 2 to 6 years. A physician's training is costly. According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, in 2004 more than 80 percent of medical school graduates were in debt for educational expenses. Licensure and certification. All States, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories license physicians. To be licensed, physicians must graduate from an accredited medical school, pass a licensing examination, and complete 1 to 7 years of graduate medical education. Although physicians licensed in one State usually can get a license to practice in another without further examination, some States limit reciprocity. Graduates of foreign medical schools generally can qualify for licensure after passing an examination and completing a U.S. residency. M.D.s and D.O.s seeking board certification in a specialty may spend up to 7 years in residency training, depending on the specialty. A final examination immediately after residency or after 1 or 2 years of practice also is necessary for certification by a member board of the American Board of Medical Specialists (ABMS) or the American Osteopathic Association (AOA). The ABMS represents 24 boards related to medical specialties ranging from allergy and immunology to urology. The AOA has approved 18 specialty boards, ranging from anesthesiology to surgery. For certification in a subspecialty, physicians usually need another 1 to 2 years of residency. Other qualifications. People who wish to become physicians must have a desire to serve patients, be self-motivated, and be able to survive the pressures and long hours of medical education and practice. Physicians also must have a good bedside manner, emotional stability, and the ability to make decisions in emergencies. Prospective physicians must be willing to study throughout their career to keep up with medical advances. Advancement. Some physicians and surgeons advance by gaining expertise in specialties and subspecialties and by developing a reputation for excellence among their peers and patients. Many physicians and surgeons start their own practice or join a group practice. Others teach residents and other new doctors, and some advance to supervisory and managerial roles in hospitals, clinics, and other settings.

Go to UMC emergency room (county hospital), complain of severe dental pain, and declare yourself indigent and homeless. You will be referred to one of the local oral surgeons who have privileges at UMC. They will treat your immediate dental problem at no cost.

Dr. Safi in Houston, Texas. A well known surgeon with a team that can tackle situation with confidence. He saved my life.

I would say that Doctor is the most appropriate because it addresses her status as a physician.

no, because operating on the heart is more critical and harder there are more risks and such.

It all depends on where you live but on average about $450, 000 a year (In a hospital) But if you own a private practice and you are very busy between 1 and 2 million dollars.

To become a plastic surgeon you need to get good grades in high school and college. mostly As and Bs dont get lower than a C or B-.

The simple answer is yes, but patients and their families need to understand why, so that they can make well informed decisions regarding Surgical intervention. Serious Trauma patients often enter Surgery with little chance of survival, but if they die on the OR table from catastrophic injuries the Surgeon is rarely to blame. Would close family members not want the Surgeon to even attempt to take extraordinary measures to save a life? The risk of a complication from anesthesia is rare, but not necessarily due to any error. In the majority of cases where a patient dies during Surgery no one is to blame and reasonable people should not seek to punish those whose job of work is to save lives if at all possible. There are always certain risks associated with Surgery, but this must be fully explained to the patient prior to their operation when they are asked to sign a Consent Form. This is referred to as giving "informed consent" by acknowledging that you understand all of the potential risks or complications that might occur during or as a direct consequence of Surgery. Everything that we decide to do to treat a patient, including Surgery, comes down to Risk/Benefit: does the potential benefit to the patient outweigh the risk involved? On certain occasions extremely skilled Surgeons will attempt a case that has very little chance of success, but if the patient's prognosis for survival without Surgery is dismal anyway, this too may be worth the risk. While no Surgery is completely risk free the patient is asked to decide whether that risk is acceptable under the circumstances and all circumstances are different. The patient or family member signing consent for Surgery must also bear some responsibility for the outcome as complications can also be due to incorrect information supplied to the Surgical team by the patient or the patient's non-compliance with important instructions and therefore not related to any error made by the team. Due to the propensity for legal action nowadays, a Surgeon is more likely to err on the side of presenting the worst case scenario to their patient to discourage unreasonable expectations. Sadly, this can also diminish a patient's will to live and their determination to survive a complicated Surgery! Patients must try to remain positive and proactive in their own care plan. It is absolutely vital to make sure that you fully understand the risks of Surgery before signing a consent form and do not be afraid to ask questions of the Surgical team prior to signing: if you do not anticipate risk you have not made an informed decision.

There are no specific high school classes you must take to become a cosmetologist. Rather, just focus on graduating and getting your diploma or GED. From there, enroll in a cosmetology school where you can get certified. There is actually one class that you have to take in order to go to cosmetology school. You must take chemistry because you need to learn how to mix chemicals in and chemistry can help you with that.

Yes you also need Education: The education and training requirements for obstetrics/gynecology are set by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG) and include the following: * Graduation from an approved medical school * Completion of an OB/GYN residency program (minimum of 4 years in length) that is accredited by the American Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) * ** Rotations divided between obstetrics, gynecology, gynecologic oncology, reproductive endocrinology, and ultrasonography. Experience in primary and preventive care role for the equivalent of at least 6 months of the residency, including inpatient and ambulatory care; diagnosis and management of breast disease and lower urinary tract dysfunction; performance and interpretation of diagnostic pelvic and trans-vaginal ultrasound. * Increase in patient responsibility with each year of training * Serving as chief (senior) resident during final year of residency

Once the above requirements are met, physicians are allowed to take the certifying examinations given by ABOG. Physicians who pass the examination are granted board certified status in Obstetrics and Gynecology, a pre-requisite to subspecialty certification. If certified in obstetrics and gynecology after 1986, the physician must complete a recertification process every 10 years to maintain certified status. If certified before 1986, the physician can take a voluntary recertification process.

Bachelor of Medicine/Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS/MBChB)

Doctor of Medicine (M.D.)

What a great question! At least you are concerned about this aspect of possibly becoming a surgeon. I have worked for many surgeons in different areas and one thing 75% of them don't have is a good personality. It's not that they mean to be this way, they are just so into their profession they forget they are talking to a human being. It's an art form and it takes a lot of skill to work on the human body. Plastic surgeons generally are more caring and will take the time to talk to their patients in layman's terms. These are the traits one should possess: * Evaluate the patient and depending on the age (too young) wanting to have breasts enlarged it's a wise surgeon that will tell a too young patient they should wait a bit to have the surgery done and refuse to do it and tell them why. * To sit down with the patient and go every detail as to how they can correct what is wrong with their appearance or if it's to do with weight loss (those flaps that won't go away after) and to show the patient on the computer how they will look when the process is finished. * Be up front about the correct cost of the surgery. If there are any risks involved and to be sure to let the patient know if scarring will be a problem for them. Most plastic surgeons will do their best to hide any light scars in creases of the body. * Don't talk down to your patient, but up; meaning that a surgeon should speak in layman's terms so they understand and then go over it a second time to make sure the patient understands. * Have a pleasant manner and realize this is a scary leap for the patient that will be worrying about healing time and pain and the surgeon should be honest in stating what they plan to do about the pain and how long the stitching will take to heal (swelling of face or any other part of the body.) * Having a good sense of humor without being crude or rude is also helpful. Touching the patient on the shoulder, smiling and letting them know that they will do the best work they can and will be supportive before and after surgery. This gives the patient confidence in the surgeon and lowers the heart rate. * A successful surgeon is not noted for their skills by their pocket book, but by having a caring attitude about their patient and feeling the pain that some people go through if they should have a terrible mark on their face or injuries from an auto accident. Even those that seek the plastic surgeon out for breast enlargement should be treated with respect and told of any risks for the implants. Surgeons in a way are artists and can change many unpleasant aspects on a human body so it's to their best interest to do an excellent job because that patient will be a walking advertisement for that surgeon.
