Add Your Name to Our Legacy as a member of the Berks County Medical Society
This is the year to add your name.
We see the new challenges we are facing in our profession. We see how the art of medicine is being misused by public opinion. We see our patients’ trust and health eroding due to misinformation. Now is the time for us to take a stand in support of the well-being of our patients and the health of our community. Now is the time for YOU to join your colleagues in the Berks County Medical Society and Pennsylvania Medical Society to make a difference.
Over these past 198 years, BCMS has created a network of physicians who support, trust, and mentor one another. In our community, the timeline of medicine runs through every one of us. Each year we continue to evolve and build on our commitment to advocate for physicians and their practices in order to better serve our patients. Each year we increase our influence in state and local government. Each year, new physicians help those of us already engaged carry the torch and add their voice and leadership to our Society. But this engine of progress will only continue to run on physicians’ support, and we need yours.
Today, we support over 600 society members, and remain one of the most active county chapters in Pennsylvania. As we continue to grow, BCMS remains committed to creating opportunities, providing resources, and supporting initiatives among both our healthcare professionals and the Berks County community.
The Berks County Medical Society works to provide opportunities for career growth, networking, and outlets of support among our members. Recent benefits include:
Free Continuing Medical Education (CME) which is easily accessible
Colleague to colleague practice support and mentorship
In-person and online events to support the community and celebrate our society
Physician Wellness Center: a response to the burn-out experienced by physicians that was exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic. Resources include:
Quick access to crisis resources
Free online exercise and meditation programs
Apps for individuals in recovery
I would love to share more about my personal experience as a member of BCMS, as well as the strong history behind the organization and the outstanding work we have accomplished during the pandemic.
Feel free to reach out to myself or the BCMS leadership team to learn more and add your name to our growing legacy.
