How to go from RN to Plastic Surgeon?

Question

I was wondering in about 3 years, I will finish and become an RN. How can I go from being an RN to a Plastic Surgeon?

People, I asked how can I become a Plastic Surgeon being an RN. Not from the bottom.

Answer 1

Sorry, these answers are correct. You do not get to transfer anything over from being an RN to being a MD. You must have all the pre-reqs and a bachelor's degree (in nursing I asume) and take the MCATS; apply to Medical school just like everyone else and do 4 years of medical school, then a surgical internship, residency and possibly fellowship in plastic surgery. You may have to take a few more pre-reqs as well, just depending on what all you were able to take in your BSRN program. If this is what you want, I suggest checking out the medical school pre-reqs now so you can take all the classes you need now.

Answer 2

You should apply to medical school and take appropriate courses. When you graduate and finish your internship, you can look for a position with a practice that specializes in plastic surgery. Eventually, as you acquire experience, you may decide to open your own practice.

Answer 3

You will have to go to medical school and then take courses in the field of plastic surgery.

Answer 4

It's a litle small thing called Medical School. It may cost you a year's salary, but it would be worth it in the long run

Answer 5

Four years of medical school. Three years for your internship and residency. Then you'll need to be selected for a surgery fellowship. Then you'll have to be selected for a cosmetic and reconstructive surgery fellowship.

After you get your bachelors degree , you can apply to med school .
All surgeons must do med school in the US .
