Medical Alliance
MADISON COUNTY MEDICAL ALLIANCE
The MCMA is a group of physicians and physician spouses who come together to support one another and our local community through volunteerism, community grants, and scholarships. Our event year runs from August through April. Throughout that time, we feature speakers highlighting health and wellness, host regular playground meet ups, and have other wonderful opportunities to meet others within our community.
MISSION STATEMENT
The Madison County Medical Alliance is an organization of physician's spouses and physicians committed to improving the health of Madison County through the promotion of health education and scholarships, outreach programs, legislative awareness, and community health projects. The Alliance upholds the efforts of the Madison County Medical Society and provides support for medical families.
