I believe that ABCC diplomates are recognized as leaders in our field and that as a result my certification has opened many doors for me.  The rigor of the ABCC certification process is one of the reasons our credentials continue to be so well-regarded.  My ABCC diplomate status is a concrete representation of my commitment to continued growth and excellence in clinical chemistry and toxicological chemistry.

Being ABCC certified allows me to be confident that I can compete for clinical chemistry/toxicology positions across the country. From a clinical licensing perspective, having ABCC certification was essential to obtaining a Clinical Chemist director license in the State of California. To me, someone with ABCC certification signifies that they are commitment to our profession and have achieved a high level of success.

My main area of practice is postmortem forensic toxicology. Being board certified in toxicological chemistry shows my colleagues, regulatory agencies, and the courts that I also have competence in the interpretation of test results pertaining to living individuals. Also, due to the continuing education requirements associated with this certification, I can better evaluate different case types with confidence that my skill set remains current with the latest clinical laboratory developments.
