How long does a doctor have to do clinicals after medical school?

After graduating from medical school, doctors must complete a residency program, which is a period of supervised training in a particular medical specialty. The length of a residency program varies depending on the specialty, but it typically lasts from three to seven years.

During residency, doctors work under the supervision of experienced physicians and receive hands-on training in their chosen specialty. They also take classes and participate in research. After completing residency, doctors are eligible to apply for board certification, which is a voluntary credential that demonstrates that a doctor has met certain standards of training and competence.
