Did you know that doctors train for more than a decade before practicing independently?

In most countries, becoming a fully qualified doctor takes 10–15 years, including medical school, internships, residency, and sometimes fellowships. This long training period ensures doctors gain not only theoretical knowledge but also real-life experience in diagnosing patients, handling emergencies, and making critical decisions under pressure.
