The American Board of Podiatric Medicine (ABPM) is committed to maintaining the highest standards of ethical conduct and transparency in all aspects of its governance and operations. To preserve public trust and ensure that all decisions are made in the best interests of the organization and the podiatric profession, all Board of Directors members are required to disclose any actual or potential conflicts of interest.

A conflict of interest exists when a board member’s personal, professional, or financial interests could compromise, or appear to compromise, their ability to act in the best interests of ABPM. This policy is not intended to prevent conflicts from arising, but rather to ensure that they are identified, disclosed, and managed appropriately.

Each board member completes an annual Conflict of Interest Disclosure Form and updates it promptly whenever circumstances change. Individual board member disclosures are available below.
