State Medical Boards
Here is information on the United States medical boards and the District of Columbia. For most states, you can check on a plastic surgeon's medical license by going to the board's website.
Some states have separate boards for medical doctors and osteopathic doctors, while other states have boards that deal with licensing of everything from physicians to cosmetologists.
