Is The Surgeon Board Certified
Because board certified is recognized these days as such an important credential, more and more doctors are using them in the Yellow Pages listings and other forms of advertising.
This goes not only for offline advertising which also includes TV but online advertising as well.
Unfortunately, “Board Certified“ doesn’t always mean the same thing.
Learn the difference between the terms or you could wind up in the hands of someone that is poorly qualified.
What You Want…Bottom Line…
You want to select a surgeon who is certified by the “American Board of Plastic Surgery”. Period, end of story!
This is not the same as the ” American Board of Cosmetic Surgery” or any number of other similar boards which, although their name sounds impressive, actually carry very little weight or no merit.
The “American Board of Plastic Surgery” is the only board recognized by the accrediting groups supported by the American Medical Association.
