About PAMED

PAMED’s Mission: The Pennsylvania Medical Society is the voice of Pennsylvania’s physicians, advancing quality patient care, the ethical practice of medicine, and advocating for the patients they serve. We promote physician leadership, education, professional satisfaction, practice sustainability, and the public’s health. View our Strategic Plan

Don’t face the challenges of practicing medicine alone. Being a Pennsylvania physician is easier when the Pennsylvania Medical Society (PAMED) and your county medical society are your partner.
