    Orthopaedics is a 5 year residency.

    Fellowship is 1 year.

    We are 2 years down.

      DH's urology program is 6 years (we just started PGY-5), plus - likely - 2 years of fellowship for a grand total of ... 8 years. :thud:

        EM can be 3 or 4 years. We're in the first of 3; he sometimes discusses doing a critical care or toxicology fellowship which would add one or two.

                  Three years peds residency + three years child neurology fellowship followed at some point by one year epilepsy fellowship. We're done for now.

                      What dandelion said but we're behind them.

                      We're in our 7th and final year of General Surgery (two years research between R4 and R5). We have two years of peds surg fellowship to go.

                      Gulp.

                              Reading through the replies, I feel very lucky that DH picked a relatively short residency. We're in the last year (4) of anesthesia. Luckily he couldn't make up his mind about fellowships.
