On January 20 of 1799, just as the Maryland State Legislature was beginning its annual assembly, the Medical & Chirurgical Faculty of Maryland was legislated into existence. From across the state, 101 medical men convened to establish an organization to “prevent quackery and pretenders to the healing arts.”
Please join us in celebrating 220 years of working for and with the physicians of Maryland.
Hello Meg, How great to be associated with an organization with such a long and illustrious history, especially when you are working so hard to improve MedChi and preserve its heritage.
