| The Maricopa County Medical Society (MCMS) is pleased to announce the creation of a Mentorship Committee; chaired by Miriam Anand, MD, with Christopher Yeung, MD, and Kelly Hsu, MD, as members.
The purpose of the committee is to create mentorship programs that foster a positive learning environment where experienced MCMS member physicians can teach and mentor individuals in the early stages of their medical career, or in the decision making process of entering a medical career. In addition, participants can act as a support system for established physicians that have recently moved to Maricopa County and wish to practice here.
We would love to have your involvement!

Scottsdale Healthcare Family Medicine Graduates Help Meet Doctor Shortage
|
| After three years of rigorous training at Scottsdale Healthcare, seven new family physicians will graduate from the nonprofit health system's Family Medicine Residency Program June 23, helping address the state and nation's shortage of family doctors.
