NUMBER 21 AMERICAN BOARD OF NEUROLOGICAL SURGERY 2003
TRANSITION FROM RECERTIFICATION TO MAINTENANCE OF CERTIFICATION DAVID G. PIEPGRAS, MD IMMEDIATE PAST CHAIRMAN

For the young specialist, completion of postgraduate specialty training remains a landmark that deserves recognition as having achieved a high level of expertise. As early as 1908 the first specialty group, the American Academy of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology, proposed a process for assessing specialists in their field. In 1917 the nationally recognized Medical Specialty Board of Ophthalmology was established. Otolaryngology followed in 1924 with their program of required training and certification. Neurosurgery incorporated the ABNS in 1940 with the broad aim to encourage the study, to improve the practice, to elevate the standards, to advance the science, and to serve the cause of public health.
