ABMS Member Boards

The 24 certifying boards or Member Boards of ABMS were founded by their respective specialties to assess and certify physicians and medical specialists who demonstrate the clinical judgment, skills, and attitudes essential for the delivery of excellent patient care.

About These Boards

These boards are not membership societies. Each is a physician-led, non-profit, independent evaluation organization whose accountability is both to the profession and to the public. Members of the governing bodies include representatives from among the national specialty organizations in related fields.
