Primary Business / Services

History

The Arizona Medical Association’s (ArMA) roots date back to the late 1800s. At that time, physicians lacked hospital facilities, and many lived in remote places – unable to obtain assistance or consultations when needed. In 1892, Dr. Joshua Miller, then president of the Maricopa County Medical Society, along with four other physicians, sent a letter to all of the physicians of Arizona, calling a meeting to organize a Territorial Medical Society. A few days later, Dr. Miller was elected the first president of the newly-formed Arizona Medical Association. Over the last 120 years, ArMA has established itself as the advocate for all Arizona physicians. Learn more here about ArMA’s work throughout Arizona history.
