Re: How To Become A Cardiovascular Surgeon

Cardiac surgery involves surgery to the heart and large blood vessels.Thoracic surgery involves surgery to the lungs and any other structures within the chest cavity.

Cardiothoracic surgery is not for the faint-of-heart.

Long years of training, long hours of working, studying, and long hours of surgery requiring intense focus both during residency as well as during your years of practicing as a cardiothoracic surgeon

You will need:


To study a premedical degree (4 years) then

To study another 4 years at medical school followed by

Do a 5-year general surgery residency, and after that

Do a 2-year cardiothoracic surgery residency

After that you may also want to do further fellowships.

The cardiothoracic surgeon salary:

A cardiothoracic surgeon’s salary in private practice is up to $500,000 or more per year depending on how much you choose to work.

Cardiothoracic surgeon salary = $500,000+ per year.
