FPM update: specialist pain medicine credential

Dr Hoo Kee Tsang tells us about the new Specialist Pain Medicine credential.

We’re pleased to announce the launch of the new Faculty of Pain Medicine (FPM) Specialist Pain Medicine credential – a new process to formally recognise a doctor's expertise in pain medicine to bring assured training and regulatory oversight.

GMC credentials were originally developed to focus on discrete areas of practice where consistent clinical standards are considered necessary to support better and safer patient care or where patients are at risk due to workforce gaps.
