What does it mean to be Board Certified?
We all know that it’s a big plus whenever doctors are “board certified.” But what does it mean to be certified? Find out more about the voluntary, extensive certification process.
Certification Matters. And ultimately, the measure of physician specialists is not merely that they have been certified, but how well they keep current in their specialty. That’s why in 2000, the 24 Member Boards of the American Board of Medical Specialties agreed to evolve their re-certification programs to one of continuous professional development – ABMS Maintenance of Certification (ABMS MOC). ABMS MOC assures that the physician is committed to lifelong learning and competency in a specialty and/or subspecialty by requiring ongoing measurement of six core competencies.” Learn more about voluntary maintenance of certification.
Here at Tennessee River Dermatology, our facility is more than comfortable and convenient. It’s fully equipped with state-of-the-art skin care technology, efficiently operated to cut down on patient wait times.
