What other doctoral degrees include just 4 years after undergrad?
Im a junior in high school, trying to narrow down my career choices. I know i want to do something medical, and im willing to put in the time for something im passionate about. However, it becomes a problem of money and tuition for 10-15 years. I also cant really imagine studying generalized medicine in med school for so long. I need something more specific, so im looking at my choices that do not include going to medical school. I know optometry is just 4 years after undergrad, are there any other doctoral degrees similar in length? #doctor #medicine #college-major #professor #medical-school #optometry

Don't know of any. There are a few programs out there that combine bachelor/master or a 5 year master degree, but I know of no program that allows you to go from bachelor into doctoral program. Most require you to do leveling if coming outside of major.
Just saw your question. Audiologist and Physical Therapy are 4 year programs, but they are not Ph.D. but AuD and PTD.

Considering your problem of money try learning something independently (preferably something digital like webdesign) that can give you supplemental income. Your at the perfect age to learn it in your free time. Its something that can provide income while you pursue your educational passion.
