The American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, self-appointed physician-evaluation organization that certifies physicians practicing obesity medicine. The American Board of Obesity Medicine is not a membership society, educational institution, or licensing body. Certification is intended to signify that a physician possess specialized knowledge of obesity.[2] Eligibility requires completion of a recognized fellowship program[3] or sufficient continuing medical education (CME).

History

The American Board of Obesity Medicine was established in 2011[4] by the American Board of Bariatric Medicine (ABBM) and the Certified Obesity Medicine Physician (COMP) steering committee.[5] In 2012, the first certification examinations were offered.[6] The certification examination is offered annually.[5] As of 2021, 5,424 physicians were board certified by the ABOM.[7]
