Don’t miss the opportunity to spend a solid weekend with like-minded physicians, those who care passionately about integrity in medicine, health access issues, and creative collaboration in moving forward towards a healthier America. This will truly be an inspiring meeting of the minds (and that means you!)

“We are one. If we don’t know it, we will learn it the hard way.”
– Bayard Rustin, Civil Rights Activist, Organizer of the 1963 March on Washington
Now is the time to join the National Physicians Alliance at its meeting in Houston, TX. If you have never been to an NPA event, you are truly missing out. Missing out on energy. You may arrive tired and disheartened, but you leave energized and full of momentum to make a difference. Whether you would like to join in NPA’s efforts to ensure the availability of quality health care to all in the US or to explore how big business looks to compromise your practice as a physician and the health of your patients, you can find it with this group.
Certainly, one of the best things about a National Physicians Alliance meeting is finding like minded physicians who are in the struggle to maintain the integrity of our profession, and who strive daily to put their patients first. That is what excites me. It is an exciting time in our country and everyone is talking about change. Now is the time for physicians like us to make a stand and be heard.
When I leave an NPA meeting I truly get what Bayard Rustin was saying. We are truly one!
