What is Relief Certification™
Relief Certified™️ validation and certification process is designed to give you, the patient, peace of mind that the doctor you choose has the qualifications and standard of excellence you can trust. Finding a physician can be a daunting and overwhelming task. It is our goal to make sure the physicians interacting with the Relief Institute have the necessary medical credentials and surgical training/experience you deserve. Relief Institute takes pride in our validation and certification process so that you feel confident that a doctor within the Relief Institute is representing core values.
Relief Institute’s certification process has strict standards. Physicians must pass multiple validation criteria before he or she is officially approved and added to our system. Our Certification process ensures the legitimacy and experience of the Doctor’s credentials through a detailed review of their medical license status, malpractice insurance, DEA Registration, and Patient Satisfaction Scores. In addition, we go even further to validate the level of professionalism and experience in their field with verifying surgical experience and skill (number of cases completed within their specialty), Board certification and Fellowship training, participation in medical publications “thought leader”, physician for amateur and/or professional sport teams, and additional surgical technique training and/or implant training certification. Even after a physician is added to our system, we review their credentials on a yearly basis for any irregularities that might restrict them from providing you with the quality of care we strive for at the Relief Institute. In the event a credentialing or license issue arises with a certified physician, we will address it immediately and take the necessary steps to correct. They will be given time to correct the issue or be removed from our program. In order for a physician to be Relief Certified™️, he must pass validation of the following core criteria requirements:
Again, by choosing the Relief Institute, the research has been done for you! Today more than ever it’s imperative to check and validate your doctor’s credentials. Our doctors go through the Relief Certified™️ process on a yearly basis to ensure they are maintaining and staying current on their medical licensing, credentialing, and qualifications to provide you with the standard of care required by the Relief Institute.
How Relief Certification™ Works
With numerous doctors across the nation, the Relief Institute is your online resource for finding a provider near you. It’s not enough for a doctor to understand your pain. You need someone who knows how to treat you right.
Doctors opt into Relief Certification™
When a doctor chooses our expanded profile allowing them to show you more information, we offer them the opportunity to get Relief Certified™ to confirm the information they are showing is verified.
Certificate Verification
A number of certifying documents are required and checked for authenticity by our verification department. We take additional steps to verify the applicant’s identity, background and experience within their field.
Relief Certified™ Badge
A doctor profile that has been securely confirmed will receive our Relief CertifiedTM Badge as a proof of verification. Additionally, we monitor ongoing activity and ratings to ensure a continued standard of excellence and patient satisfaction.
Our goal is to provide patients with access to reputable doctors to help them get out of pain and back into life as quickly as possible.

When a doctor signs up to be listed on ReliefInstitute.com, they go through an initial verification process before they are onboarded to the site, whether they execute a Free profile or an Enhanced profile. If a Doctor signs up for a free profile, we confirm their medical license, good standing to practice in the state, their education, board certifications, and surgical experience before they are approved to be listed. If the Doctor opts for the Enhanced profile listing, that includes our inclusive Relief Certification™️ process. Given the additional information available within that profile listing, our Relief Certification™️ process consists of a more robust background check of each Doctor. The Relief Certification background check goes a step further than the standard check done on free listings. We check on government exclusion and debarment search, DEA certification, Malpractice insurance coverage, and more. Once information is approved then they will receive approval on the Relief Institute website. As an aside, the Relief Institute does not make any representations about the doctor and their ability to provide medical and surgical care.
Yes. We provide Doctors with two listing options. They can sign up and be listed on Reliefinstitute.com for free or they can choose to upgrade to an Enhanced profile that contains more information about the doctor and clinic.
Yes. Doctors can choose to upgrade their Free listing to an Enhanced listing that consists of more information about the doctor and their clinic and additional information about medical experience including, but not limited to, special surgical technique and implant training, publications/research, and a thorough background check through our Relief Certification™ process. The Enhanced profile listing requires constant content management and updating by the Relief Institute team.
