Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists

Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, often listed as "FACOG" is a post-nominal title for members indicating their status with the College. This indicates that the OB/GYN's education and training, professional qualifications, medical-surgical competence, and ethical conduct have passed a rigorous evaluation and have been found to be consistent with the high standards established and demanded by the College. To become a fellow, candidates must become certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology.

*Because membership to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists is optional and voluntary, not every OB/GYN will have the FACOG title.
*In the real-world, the College has been renamed to the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
