Most medical spouses are concerned about the issues facing medicine.
The DCMSA is a great source of information and an organized vehicle
to send unified messages to legislators. Members can and must have
a constructive, collective impact on the positive image of physicians
in the community.
Spouses of physicians will always share a unique and common bond.
Keep up with old friends, enrich your experience with new friends,
and broaden your horizons while your own life progresses as an integral
member of the medical community.
Effective health programs make a difference in the quality of life.
Our DCMSA members see and feel the impact in community health because
of direct and local involvement in medically related projects. These
grassroot efforts help secure a healthier and safer environment.
