Attending physicians who graduate with a doctorate degree are generally promoted to deputy chief physicians in 2 to 3 years. Specifically, there should be no rigid age requirement.

The requirements for applying to be an attending physician are to complete the "Standardized Training for Residency Physicians" and have a resident training certificate + five years for undergraduate graduation and two years for master's degree. In fact, these two are the same. Those who have graduated with a doctorate must have enough years, no matter how many years they have spent in professional studies. It is equivalent to starting directly from attending.

The gap between doctors gradually widened when they were promoted to deputy senior chief. It turns out that generally those doctors who have many articles will be promoted to deputy senior doctor after 4 to 5 years of promotion, while ordinary doctors will be promoted to deputy senior doctor after 5 to 10 years. Around 2000, some people were promoted to deputy senior positions, and some people were too lazy to do scientific research and write articles so they stayed as attending physicians for many years, because at the attending level, they already have basically all the rights to take charge of their own affairs.

In recent years, "standardized training for specialist physicians" has been implemented, which is one of the requirements for promotion to deputy senior physician. Specialist training takes 2-4 years. I don’t know what changes will be brought about in the future. At the same time, just like those with a master’s degree have a residential training certificate, graduates with a Ph.D. also have a professional training certificate.

Deputy Gao, Jin Zhenggao, well, it is a metaphysics~(￣▽￣~)~

Some people are very fast, some are very slow, except for articles, there are generally no hard indicators, it depends Regarding your comprehensive strength, it mainly focuses on scientific research, but also includes the number of clinical cases, personal connections, etc. It does not mean that you rely on connections to go through the back door. After all, the higher you go, the smaller the circle is. You almost all know who is who, and the same goes for peer review. Very important indicator.

For example, my master's degree supervisor was promoted to a full-level position almost 10 years after graduating from his Ph.D., which is relatively fast.

That's about it.
