The American Medical Women's Association is a national organization designed to address the needs and interests of female physicians and medical students. More than 10,000 members support a national forum that includes an active lobbying effort to influence national health policy and improve women's health and medical care.
All AMWA activities are open to both male and female medical students and faculty members.
We encourage you to attend meetings and share any new ideas you may have for us. A local forum offers personal contact with practicing female physicians, help with balancing personal and career goals, and options and alternatives in the practice of medicine. Goals for this school year include establishing a mentoring program and focusing on women's health issues. We will also deliver food baskets to geriatric shut-ins as part of our commitment to community service.
