Will getting another certification actually make you a better clinician?
Or just give you more letters after your name?
In this episode, we tackle one of the most common questions we hear — which certifications should I get?
Because in pelvic health, there are a lot of options.
And a lot of confusion.
We break down what certifications really are… and what they’re not.
At the end of the day, a certification is simply someone saying:
“You’re certified.”
That’s it.
We also talk about the uncomfortable truth — that many certifications are primarily a marketing tool.
They’re designed to package courses together, increase completion, and yes… sell more education.
That doesn’t make them bad.
But it does mean we need to think about them differently.
We also dive into:
• Why certifications don’t bring patients through the door
• Why they won’t fix imposter syndrome
• The difference between learning for growth vs. chasing letters
• Why even the most recognized certifications don’t guarantee better clinical skills
• How to actually choose the right con-ed for your career
At the end of the day, the question isn’t:
“What certification should I get?”
It’s:
“Would I take this if there were no letters attached?”
