A member asked:
What number of years do i have to study in order to be a gastroenterologist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gastroenterology: Average length of time is four years of medical school, three or four years of internal medicine residency, and three or four years of G.I. Fellowship. I personally did 11 years altogether. It's a rewarding field. Go for it if you are interested.
