This includes DPMs who completed a CPME-approved surgical residency of less than three years or whose ABFAS Board Qualified status has expired.

    Candidates must have completed a CPME-approved podiatric surgery residency to pursue ABFAS Certification in Foot Surgery and RRA Surgery through the Alternative Pathway.
