The St. Johns County Medical Alliance received a First Place
Doctors' Day Award, for counties under 49 members, at the Southern Medical
Association’s 2012 Healthcare Summit in Nashville, Tennessee. Special Service
Awards and Alliance Project Awards were honored at the Association’s Awards
Luncheon on November 17.
The Southern Medical Association Alliance (SMAA) began in 1924
as a volunteer organization of physician spouses supporting the Family of
Medicine. Today, the Alliance covers 16 Southern states and the District of
Columbia, and its members educate communities about health-related issues,
encourage students to become future physicians, preserve medical history and
achievements, and raise funds for student/resident scholarships and grants.
SMAA also continues to provide networking and support uniquely tailored to
physicians and physician spouses.
