Doctors who are ABMS and AOA board-certified are all licensed. But doctors who are licensed are not necessarily members of an ABMS or AOA member board. Wise patients understand the background and importance of board certification for medical specialties.
1 Approximately 30,000 surgeons are currently board certified by the ABS.  The ABS is one of the 24 member boards of the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS). Other ABMS member boards provide board certification in other surgical specialties, such as plastic surgery and orthopedic surgery (see Links).
