Company Overview
The Mound City Medical Forum (MCMF) was chartered in 1920 as the first local component society of the National Medical Association established west of the Mississippi. Its parent national organization, the National Medical Association (NMA), was chartered in 1895, born out of the exigencies of the time, to be the national voice, forum for thought, and strategy on contemporary medical and medic-social issues, as well as for the education of African American physicians in advocacy for quality delivery of health care for minority and underserved patients of the United States.
Currently the MCMF is the voice of more than 200 African American and Caribbean Physicians in the St. Louis Metropolitan area. It is a forum for sharing of scientific thought between physician colleagues and a platform from which to speak on social and political issues relative to the health of the African American public, including an ever-present battle against health care disparities.
