"I have to become board certified."

Board certification has never been more urgent in the United States. Diabetic patients consume much of our practice time and effort. Treating diabetic foot care can be a lucrative educational undertaking.

The American Board of Multiple Specialties in Podiatry offers a certification in Diabetic Foot Wounds. We are the only nationally recognized board in podiatry that bestows this credential.

Now is the time to participate and become board certified in Diabetic Foot Wounds. A residency is not required, nor are there oral examinations once you have passed the examination.

This moment will not last long. Get certified now.
