I have passed the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery's examination for Subspecialty certification in Sports Medicine. This is a certificate of added qualifications in Orthopaedic Sports Medicine which certifies orthopaedic surgeons who specialize in the treatment of sports injuries such as knee ligament and cartilage injuries, shoulder dislocations and rotator cuff tears. This is the first time this examination has been given, and I am happy to be in the first group to obtain this certification. Besides passing the examination, applicants must already be board certified and perform a minimum of 125 sports medicine surgeries per year in addition to passing a peer review process.
