Recently many pediatricians received a letter stating that Dr. Lawrence B. Slobody and I had proposed them for certification as DIPLOMATE in the Pediatric Section of the Pan American Medical Association, Inc. I write to inform the readers of this Journal that neither Dr. Slobody nor I ever proposed anyone for certification for Diplomate in the Pan American Medical Association. Furthermore, I did not authorize the use of my name in this connection, and Dr. Slobody has informed me that he did not do so either.
