The mission of the American Board of Urology is to act for the benefit of the public to insure high quality, safe, efficient, and ethical practice of Urology by establishing and maintaining standards of certification for urologists.

The American Board of Urology (ABU) provides this web site as a service to our  Diplomates, applicants, residents, residency program directors, and the general public. The new look and enhanced functionality of our web site is designed to meet the needs of our clients in a more efficient and comprehensive way.

The information presented here is also available from the ABU office, but generally the most up-to-date information will be accessible here more quickly than through the mail from the ABU Office. Virtually all the interactions between our clients and the Board staff can be conducted through the various features of the web site; however, we are available for telephone calls between 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM ET, Monday through Friday at (434) 979-0059.
