Located in Houston, Texas, the ABOHNS is a 501 (c) 6 non-profit organization. As a certifying board, the ABOHNS works with its physician volunteers, diplomates, and sponsoring societies to create certification processes and programs that are rigorous in its standards... In its early decades, the ABOHNS provided accreditation for Otolaryngology residencies. In 1953, this role was taken on by the Residency Review Committee of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).
