Verification

The American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) maintains a searchable public website which includes the name of all certified physicians, the name of the certifying board(s), and whether the physician is participating in Maintenance of Certification. Find out if your doctor is board certified through the ABMS Certification Matters portal.

To obtain an official primary source verification of board certification from the American Board of Nuclear Medicine (ABNM), please submit the following:

  1. A written request for the verification. The request should include the diplomate’s full name and date of birth along with your company/institution’s name, address and the contact person to whom the response letter should be sent.
  2. An authorization to release information signed by the diplomate. (Diplomates who have provided authorization for release of information will receive a copy of the letter sent to the requestor.)
  3. A $100.00 processing fee.
