Capital Medical Society logoWelcome!

The mission of the Capital Medical Society is to promote the practice of medicine for the ultimate benefit of the patient.

The Capital Medical Society (CMS) is a local professional organization, representing more than 525 physician members who live and work in Leon, Gadsden, Jefferson and Wakulla Counties.

Capital Medical Society provides its physician members with a strong voice and active representation in local and state government, regulatory agencies and community activities. CMS addresses political, social or economic issues concerning the level and delivery of healthcare for patients and physicians in our area.

An annually elected Board of Governors governs the non-profit CMS. Contact the Board of Governors through the CMS office, by calling 850-877-9018. Capital Medical Society offers a variety of services to both its members and to the public.

CMS is affiliated with the Florida Medical Association, the largest, most effective organization representing the interests of all Florida physicians and their patients. CMS is also affiliated with the American Medical Association. Together we are stronger.
