American Board of Podiatric Surgery

The American Board of Podiatric Surgery (ABPS) is a professional organization that certifies podiatrists—medical doctors specializing in diagnosing and treating foot and ankle conditions. After completing extensive education and training, including medical school and specialized residency, podiatrists can choose to become board certified by passing rigorous exams administered by the ABPS. Certification signifies that the podiatrist has demonstrated a high level of expertise and knowledge in foot and ankle surgery and medicine. This credential helps patients identify qualified specialists for both routine foot care and complex surgical procedures.
