Surgeon Degree Program Specializations and Options. The entire educational process to become a licensed surgeon in the United States requires at least 13 years. Residency programs are offered in general surgery and specialized surgical areas like neurological, orthopedic and plastic surgery.
After completing medical school course work, any doctor must complete a residency program where they work as a doctor in a specific field, under the guidance of more experienced practitioners. To qualify as an orthopedic surgeon, you will need to complete a surgical residency in an orthopedics facility. During this five-year residency, you will participate in hundreds of arthroscopies, hand surgeries, foot surgeries, traumatic, pediatric and spinal surgeries, and log each to demonstrate your qualifications.
