All of the primary medical specialties and most of the recognized medical subspecialties offer certification under the auspices of the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS), which has twenty-four member boards.
Medical specialty certification is a voluntary process, completely separate from medical licensure, although almost all specialty boards require valid medical licensure as a prerequisite for specialty certification.
Hence, specialty certification is not necessary for medical licensure, and physicians can and do practice without specialty certification, although credentialling bodies may choose to establish specialty certification as a local requirement.
