4 years undergrad, 4 years medical school, 1 year general surgery internship, 4 years of ortho residency. Add 1-2 years for a fellowship (most orthos pursue one) in things like pediatrics, hand, foot/ankle, spine, or sports medicine among others. So between 13-15 years (though you do get paid for the last 5-7).
