Congratulations to all the Newly Board Certified Pediatricians
We have heard from so many of you that you successfully passed the boards. While many of you are giving us credit having been helped with the Laughing Your Way to Passing the Pediatric Board series, you are the ones who put in the work. Now it is time to get the word out !
If you are among those who received a letter with the good news that you passed the boards, this truly is the " most wonderful time of the year" A huge relief indeed to be able to claim that you are a " Board Certified Pediatrician" and a Diplomat ( yes that is the correct spelling ) of the American Board of Pediatrics and qualified to become a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Blow Your Own Horn
The American Board of Pediatrics has several ways you can now literally blow your own horn with all kinds of promotional trinkets and banners. Start the 2024 New Year by letting everyone know you are now a board certified pediatrician.
