Question 1 • *GV 2018 - P.E. Health Science Concepts - PE361

Which statement is true about an endocrinologist’s training?

Answer
A
The first year of a residency can be an internship.
B
A residency or a fellowship must be completed.
C
The degree given to an endocrinologist is a PhD.
D
A residency is completed before medical school.

Explanation

After medical school, doctors begin residency training, and the first year of residency may be called an internship. Endocrinologists typically complete a residency in internal medicine or pediatrics and then a fellowship in endocrinology. A residency is not completed before medical school, and endocrinologists earn a medical degree rather than a PhD.
