While BoardCertified identifies a physician’s specific area of medical specialty, this website is not intended to be a primary source for board certification verification. Each area of medical specialty maintains its own individual board which oversees physician credentialing within that particular specialty or area of medicine. Membership in medical associations and societies also exemplify a physician’s elevated expertise in that given specialty.
To verify a particular physician’s board certification credentials, association or society affiliations, we encourage you to contact the appropriate group directly. Please note the contact information and direct website links to various medical boards, associations, and affiliations listed below:
