Texas Medical Association

The Texas Medical Association, established in 1853, is the nation's largest state medical association, boasting more than 60,000 members spread across some 110 county medical societies. TMA’s vision is “improving the health of all Texans.” TMA, the TMA Alliance, and county medical societies compose the Family of Medicine, working collectively to protect the future of medicine and improve the health and lives of Texans.

TMA supports physicians in every career stage, in all practice settings. If your spouse isn’t a TMA member, check out the Ten Things You Get With TMA
