Who are we? We are multi-generational. We are young physician spouses… looking for assurance that the student debt, the moves, the
long hours will someday ease. We’re business owners with active kids… looking for camaraderie among those who “get it” — who under-
stand the dynamics of the physician family and why we’re often shuttling kids or attending events as a single parent. We’re empty-nesters…
looking to re-define ourselves and find meaningful ways to reach out to one another and our community. And we’re those approaching or
past retirement… looking for opportunities to encourage and mentor the younger generations with the wisdom earned through years of
service. Who are we? We are the Family of Medicine.
Where are we going? We’ll continue to reach out to the county’s neediest neighborhoods, bringing programs like TMA’s Hard Hats for
little Heads and be Wise Immunize. We’ll look for new opportunities to partner with others who reach out and address issues like teen preg-
nancy, homelessness, AIdS, food insecurity, sex trafficking. We’ll continue to have fun together. We’ll have Sips & dips, book club, lunch
bunch but add more family-centered, kid-friendly events and learning opportunities. We’ll advocate for the physician-patient relationship in
new ways. We’ll find fresh ways to honor our 100+ years of traditions. Where we’re going is shaped by every one of us, by our diverse expe-
riences, passions and skills. We are the Family of Medicine – our ability to positively impact each other and our community is limitless.
