No. You first have to graduate from medical school with an M.D. degree, then do a year internship in a hospital under supervision by licensed residents and attending physicians, then take and pass the state board exams for a license to ractice medicine. At that point you are a licensed physician and can practice as a G.P. If you wish to be a psychiatrist, you must then go through a psychiatric residency program which will last 2-3 years. But before you can enter the residency for psychiatry, you must already be a licensed physician.
