Hi Myles,
I used to work in a medical school. It generally takes 4 years of undergraduate studies and then 4 years of medical school. After you graduate medical school, you will be physician. At that point you will have anywhere from 3-7 years of training in what is called a residency and fellowship, all depending on your program.
Here is a good example of a full program to become a physician:
