Why Did I Join IMS?

“Every eligible physician of Marion County owes it to himself to join the Indianapolis Medical Society, for by so doing he helps himself professionally, scientifically, and financially.”

Max A. Bahr, MD

“With all the encroachment on our professionalism, professional organizations are more important than ever and the only tangible way to look out for our patients ourselves and our profession.”
