medical residency/ fellowship (U.S)
Explanation:
Source: Experience of a father with a doctor in the family
Residency for specialization/ Fellowship for deeper specialization

In the US, following four years of medical school, the young M. D. (medical doctor) chooses specialization by going into a residency program. Following residency (about 5 years), the doctor may go for an additional FELLOWSHIP year or two for DEEPER specialization.
The first year of residency is called INTERSHIP.

From Wikipedia:

Residency is usually, but not always, a stage of graduate medical training. A resident physician or resident or resident medical officer is a person who has received a medical degree (usually either a M.D., D.O., or MBBS, MBChB, BMed) who practices medicine usually in a hospital or clinic. The definition of Residency varies worldwide by country and structure of the medical industry. Residencies are also available, and may be required, for students graduating from pharmacy and physical therapy schools. In the US, the training of podiatrists, optometrists, and dentists may also involve a residency period.

A residency may follow the internship year or include the internship year as the first year of residency. The residency can also be followed by a fellowship, during which the physician is trained in a specialty or a sub-specialty. Successful completion of residency training is a requirement to practice medicine in many jurisdictions.

As I discussed above, Residency is a 3+ year training program in a medical specialty. The first year of training after medical school is called internship, or more commonly it is called first year of residency or PGY-1 (PostGraduate Year-1). The following years are called PGY-2, PGY-3, etc. The training that is done after a residency (in a subspecialty) is usually called a fellowship. Much of what you will learn in your chosen specialty will be learned in your residency.
