In order to become a board-certified pediatrician and carry the ubiquitous F.A.A.P. after his or her name, your doctor must complete four years each of college and medical school. If your pediatrician attended medical school out of the country, he or she must take a special set of exams to enter the next stage the pediatric residency. Check your public library for the American Board of Medical Specialties books, and look under pediatrics. Most libraries should carry these books. Call your insurance company.
Most insurance companies require their doctors to be board certified.
