Membership

Clear Lake, CaliforniaWhen you join the county medical association and the California Medical Association (CMA), you hire a powerful professional staff to protect the viability of your practice. By protecting your practice from legal, legislative, and regulatory intrusions, your membership lets you focus on what’s really important: your patients.

Physicians, residents, and medical students living or practicing in the counties of Sonoma, Mendocino, or Lake are eligible for membership. Several medical groups including The Permanente Medical Group, Redwood Radiology Medical Group, and St. Joseph Health Medical Group offer membership for their group physicians.

Residents at Kaiser and Sutter Family Medicine Residency Programs in Santa Rosa enjoy complimentary membership in the SMLMA.

More than ever, the future of medicine depends on physicians coming together—uniting—to achieve common goals. Your membership in the county medical societies and CMA makes a real difference.

What Our Members Say

I'm a member of SCMA because there are so many issues that doctors need to get involved in to shape the world of medicine, both for their own benefit and the benefit of their patients. That's why I got involved.  I stay involved because I love the community that we have!

It may sound a bit corny, but one of the things I love about medicine is the camaraderie - the connection and support among the physician community. By sticking together we can more effectively address whatever challenges come our way, for the benefit of our patients.
