The American Board of Medical Specialties can tell you if your dr. is board certified. "Certified" means that the doctor has completed a training program in a specialty and has passed an exam, or "board," to assess his or her knowledge, skills, and experience to provide quality patient care in that specialty. Primary care doctors may also be certified as specialists. The AMBS Web site is located at http://www.abms.org/newsearch.asp You can also contact the ABMS by phone at 1-866-ask-abms You can call the American Medical Association (AMA) at 800-665-2882 for information on training, specialties, and board certification for many licensed doctors in the US. This information can be found in "Physician Select" at the AMA's website http://www.ama-assn.org/aps/amahg.htm |
