About Us

Board of Directors

San Joaquin Medical Societies 13 member Board of Directors are committed to fighting for physician's rights while building a stronger, more unified healthcare community in the greater central valley and adjoining Mother Lode counties of Calaveras, Amador and Alpine. They actively work with physician members, patient groups, local and state political office holders and our partners in the California Medical Association to advance our common goals.

If you have a topic you think may be of interest to the Board, please contact any board member or the Executive Director directly.
