There are several reasons why an orthopaedic surgeon may not show up in the search results.

1.   The orthopaedic surgeon was recently certified and the online records have not yet been updated.

2.   The orthopaedic surgeon is not certified. Those who are Board Eligible are not listed. 

3.   The orthopaedic surgeon was previously certified but did not recertify.

4.   The orthopaedic surgeon is retired.

5.   The orthopaedic surgeon's certification was revoked by ABOS.

Please make sure that the name is spelled correctly. You only need to enter part of a name. The state field is not required. A Diplomate practicing in more than one state will only have the state of his/her primary office listed.
