Board Certified
Board Certification indicates that a surgeon has graduated from an accredited medical school and has completed a five-year orthopaedic surgical residency. The surgeon must then pass the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery Examination. This Board functions to serve the best interests of the public and of the medical profession by establishing educational standards for orthopaedic residents. This Board evaluates the initial and continuing qualifications of orthopaedic surgeons, requiring that each surgeon be recertified every ten years.
