Mark description
The mark consists of two black concentric circles. Inside the inner circle appear images. The innermost image contains four blue gender characters distinguishable by size appearing from left to right: small male, large female, large male, small female with bow. Surrounding the characters is a line in the image of a stethoscope forming a heart. The line is blue in their upper portion and red in the lower portion separated by a space. Between the two concentric circles are the literal elements "ABFM FOUNDATION", "RESEARCH", "QUALITY", "EDUCATION". The literal element "ABFM FOUNDATION" is in black text and separated from the other literal elements by a red circle and a blue dot. All other literal elements in between the concentric circles are in blue text and separated by a black dot only. The background color inside both circles is the color white. At the bottom of the outer circle is the image of a white scroll with a black outline inside of which appears the literal element "SUPPORTING THE SPECIALTY OF FAMILY MEDICINE" appearing in black.
