Training Verifications

UCSF Departments of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine Training Verifications

A training verification is an official confirmation of a physician’s completed education and/or training. It is a standard step for medical staff appointments, employment, licensure, and residency/fellowship credentialing.

Processing Fees & Payment

Due to the high volume of requests for training verifications, UCSF’s Departments of Pathology & Lab Medicine require an administrative processing fee of $50 for each official verification that needs to be filled out and/or signed for all trainees who have been out of the program for over 6 months. General email requests that do not need official documents filled out or verification for trainees who have been out of the program less than 6 months have no fees. Verification services are rendered only after we receive a confirmation of payment. 

We accept credit cards and checks.

Credit cards: Please pay through this link.

Checks: (or money order) make payable to "UC Regents", include the name of the trainee on the Memo (or "For") line, and address it to:
