In Your Practice Who Has Your Back?

The Chester County Medical Society (CCMS) has been supporting and advocating for Chester County physicians for almost 200 years!

IT IS OUR ONLY PRIORITY.

Managed by a VOLUNTEER physician Board, we are the only physician association in Chester County. Our members are exclusively physicians—MDs and DOs in every specialty and across all stages of practice.

Affiliated with the Pennsylvania Medical Society, we offer our members CME, practice management resources and support, leadership programs, and a host of other benefits at no cost, including an entire lobbying division at the State level dedicated to promoting physician-friendly laws and legislators and electing more physicians to political office.

All Chester County physicians benefit from the work we do, although only our members financially support our initiatives. If you or your colleagues are not yet members, please support us and join the Chester County Medical Society. If ALL Chester County physicians enrolled, just imagine the collective power, influence, and potential for change physicians would have! JOIN TODAY!
