Hello,

Hope you are doing great.

Answering to your question ,

No, you cannot pursue an MD (Doctor of Medicine) in cardiology after completing an MSc (Master of Science) in cardiology. MD is a medical degree that requires completion of an MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) or equivalent qualification. To specialize in cardiology, you would typically need to pursue a residency program in internal medicine followed by a fellowship in cardiology after completing your MBBS. Alternatively, you can pursue a DM (Doctorate of Medicine) or DNB (Diplomate of National Board) in cardiology after completing your MBBS and residency in internal medicine. An MSc in cardiology is more focused on research and may not provide the clinical training necessary to become a cardiologist..

Hope this helps!!

No, you cannot directly do an MD in Cardiology after an MSc in Cardiology.

The typical pathway to become a cardiologist involves:

  • Completing an MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) degree.
  • Following that with an MD in General Medicine.
  • Finally, pursuing a DM (Doctorate of Medicine) in Cardiology, which is a super specialization program.
