American Medical Women’s Association

The VP&S chapter of the American Medical Women's Association (AMWA) advocates for women’s health issues from the perspectives of patients and caregivers. We promote recognition and appreciation of women’s contributions to medicine of the past, present, and future.

AMWA believes that all women’s perspectives and concerns regarding medicine and health care must be heard. We recognize the importance of a women’s support network and sense of community in the pursuit of improving health care in its constant evolution. To this end, we organize lunches, talks, and trips to promote awareness and increase medical students' knowledge of women’s health.
