Credentials Verification | Icahn School of Medicine

RESIDENCIES & FELLOWSHIPS

We are happy to help you with verification requests of your residency and fellowship training. As a first step, please familiarize yourself with our guidelines. Then email our staff with the appropriate request form.

Verification of Dates Only: We provide accurate records dating back to 2005, and in some cases, may be able to provide verification of records prior to 2005. For verification of dates only requests, forward our staff a copy of the training diploma. In the event we are not able to verify training, your request will be forwarded to the training program.
Competency-Based Verification: For competency-based verification requests from 2015 to the present, please email our staff. For requests prior to 2015, please reach out to the training program’s program administrators directly.
Requests Requiring Program Director Signature: For verification requests that require a program director signature (state licensure forms, etc.), please visit our program listings and/or the list of program administrators and contact the training program directly.

We make every effort to complete verification requests within two weeks, and requests are handled on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Verification of Training for Closed Programs

If we are not able to verify training for any closed program, you will be asked to contact the Federation of State Medical Boards directly for information.
