ABHRT Certification
The WorldLink Medical has developed the ABHRT Certification to equip physicians and healthcare practitioners with the knowledge, assessment, and credibility needed to practice Hormone Replacement Therapy successfully. This certification exam is designed to assess proficiency and competence by testing newly acquired skills through written questions, case studies, hormone workshop reviews, and practical demonstrations of clinical application.

Why is the Certification Important?
As the demand for hormone therapy continues to rise, so does the need for high-quality educational programs beyond traditional board certifications. A 2012 Harris Poll of over 2,000 U.S. adults revealed that patients are increasingly researching providers' education, experience, bedside manner, and responsiveness, while also evaluating the ease of ongoing care.
Patients are now leveraging online health information to become more educated and proactive in their healthcare decisions. Given these trends, providers must adapt to meet the expectations of these patients by offering more healthcare alternatives and improved service. The ABHRT Certification ensures that physicians and practitioners have attained a high level of competency through rigorous classroom instruction, case study review, examination, and continuing medical education, including specialized hormone replacement training.
