Tarrant County Medical Society Alliance (TCMSA) was founded in 1920, and over 100 years later it endures as a dedicated group of physicians and spouses. With a diverse membership of friends, colleagues, and volunteers, TCMSA members share a common bond: Supporting Medicine in Tarrant County. It strives to serve members with fun social events, support in times of crisis, leadership development opportunities, and quality of life programs like Book Club, Drama Queens, and Hometown Explorers.
Mission Statement: To enhance the lives and health of Texans through cooperative programming with the Tarrant County Medical Society. To provide opportunities for member growth and development. To assist in developing friendly relations and mutual understanding among physicians, their families and the general public.
