Columbia Cornell Obesity Medicine
Columbia Cornell Obesity Medicine (CCOM) is dedicated to training physicians in the rapidly evolving field of obesity medicine. We are an American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM) partner organization. Physicians attend our courses annually to fulfill the ABOM credit requirements needed to qualify for the obesity board exam. These requirements include a minimum of 60 CME credits in the field of obesity and at least 30 ABOM-designated GROUP ONE credits. The credits obtained from our obesity medicine courses are considered ABOM GROUP ONE credits.
