Take Action
The best way to protect the physician-patient relationship is through support for the American Society of Medical Doctors.
Physicians need a unified voice that can speak specifically to issues that impact the doctor-patient bond. Only by working together can we use our collective strength to protect our ability to truly put the needs of our patients above the desires of government or insurance and pharmaceutical companies. Only through direct coordinated action can we ensure patients' access to doctors by protecting our field from greedy trial lawyers.
The American Society of Medical Doctors (ASMD) is taking an entirely new approach to advocacy on behalf of our profession. No longer will we stand by while others speak on our behalf. No more will we expect others to defend us from interests that seek to come between us and our patients. Now we will stand up and speak for ourselves. Now we will defend ourselves and our patients. Now we will determine our futures. Join the ASMD today!
Physicians must be involved in advocating for health reform that protects the doctor-patient relationship.
Through the ASMD, physicians will speak with one voice to educate tell their patients and their elected officials about the damage government-run health care will do. The ASMD will help to educate and train physicians across America to speak credibly and knowledgeably on the issues, and to influence public and official opinions. We will work to ensure that our message is heard by people throughout the nation.
