Finding a Geriatrician

Question for Dr. Stall

We are currently inquiring about a local doctor who claims to be a "geriatric" doctor. We wish to know if he is Board Certified and Board Qualified. Please respond.

Response from Dr. Stall

The following American Board of Medical Specialists web site (you must first register to use the directory) allows you to search for doctors in your area who have "Added Qualifications In Geriatric Medicine". Choose the "Search by Specialty/Location" tab and "Geriatric Medicine" in the "Area of Specialty" pulldown box:

Hope that helps.

Sincerely,

Dr. Rob Stall
