This was a question we received at our office today from a caller. We appreciate these interesting questions and I will attempt to post them for all to share.
Wonder if your Plastic Surgeon is Board Certified in Plastic Surgery?
There are several ways to check besides calling the plastic surgeon’s office or checking his or her website. Plus it gets somewhat confusing because there are several different medical boards. One could call these different medical boards and get info, and these medical boards have websites. The easiest way in my opinion is to go directly to the American Board of Plastic Surgery’s website and type in identifying information about the plastic surgeon in question and you should get an answer about Board Certification in Plastic Surgery:
Board Certification is a voluntary process, and one that is very different from medical licensure. Obtaining a medical license sets the minimum competency requirements to diagnose and treat patients, it is not specialty specific. Board Certification demonstrates a physician’s exceptional expertise in a particular specialty and/or subspecialty of medical practice.

How to look this Board Certification information up on the internet regarding Plastic Surgery?
At our Modesto Plastic Surgery office: Surgical Artistry, we have received this question on the phone a few times. We were initially surprised that patients would be confused on the internet. The we realized that they were not searching for Dr. T. Tammy Wu via her first name which is “Tzuying.” “Tammy” is her middle name. Thus when entering the search, use Dr. Tzuying Wu. Then you’ll find the results you are looking for.
