Verification of ABPS Board-Certified Physicians
The American Board of Physician Specialties® (ABPS) offers a fast, accurate, and dependable system for verifying the board certification of our Diplomates. A perfect solution for hospitals, credentialing agencies, and healthcare organizations, our Online Verification Database can provide official verification of ABPS board certification in a matter of minutes.
This online system was developed by the country’s largest and most experienced certification verification organization, Verisys. Within the system, you’ll have access to the physician’s specialty or specialties, certificate number, and expiration date. Additionally, our database contains primary source-verified educational information for most of our physicians, which may be used for credentialing and other professional purposes.
How to Use the ABPS Verification Database

On future visits, however, you’ll need to enter only your username and password to log in. Once inside the Online Verification Database, you’ll have the opportunity to search for physicians using last name, first name, and UPIN (unique physician identification number). A limited amount of physician information will be available before you purchase the profile to help you confirm that you have located the correct physician. Each full profile costs $40 and will be billed to the credit card associated with the user account.
Additionally, if you are a member of the general public, we can provide you with free online confirmation about a physician’s board certification with the ABPS. This public database is intended for personal use only and not for official verification or credentialing purposes. To access this database, select “Look up a Provider” under Public Inquiries. Input the physician’s last and first names in the designated fields. If you do not know the first name or are unsure of its spelling, entering a partial name will yield a list of matching physicians. Click on a physician’s name to view their current ABPS board certifications.
Please note that this database only includes physicians with active, unexpired ABPS board certifications.
