Board certification is a recognition given to medical doctors who have met certain defined standards and qualifications in a specific field of medicine, such as allergy and immunology. It signals that the doctor has completed rigorous training beyond their medical degree, including residency and fellowship, and has passed a comprehensive examination administered by the Board of that specialty. The board certification is a mark of excellence and a testament to the doctor’s commitment to staying updated with the current advancements in their field through continuing education.
