About the Sports Medicine Board Examination Review Course

The Academy assembled experts in the field of sports medicine to deliver an exceptional prep course for those physicians planning to sit for the Sports Medicine Subspecialty Board Exams. Course content offered a refresher for participants on sports medicine topics. In addition, to fully prepare registrants for ALL segments of the exam, leaders in primary care medicine were also included on the faculty to cover some general topics less familiar to PM&R physicians such as dermatology, infectious disease, and pulmonary issues.

The course, which took place May 7-10, 2008, not only prepared attendees for the exam, it also offered continuing medical education (CME) that can be used toward the 30-credit requirement to sit for the subspecialty board exam.

Registration to sit for the Sports Medicine Subspecialty Board Examination can be completed by contacting the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Registration for the Summer 2008 exam closed March 1, 2008. For board examination dates, visit www.abprm.org.
