About the Society
A county medical society for the physicians of Marion County — and a referral point for the public.
The Marion County Medical Society began with five physicians and has grown to number 265 physicians serving the Marion County area.
What the Society can do for you
The Society offers a number of services to the public, such as educational training information on physician members — place and dates of medical training, specialty, board certification and so on.
While the Society does not recommend one physician over another, it may offer alternatives concerning specialties, open or closed practices, and what type of physician is needed for a specific medical problem.
We Care
“We Care” is the indigent care program sponsored by the Marion County Medical Society. Through We Care, area specialty physicians donate their services to those who have no other means of accessing medical care. The program runs in conjunction with the Heart of Florida Health Center, Marion County Community Services, the local hospitals — AdventHealth and HCA Ocala Health — and the kindness of many specialty care physicians.
For members
The Society offers members community representation, public relations, continuing medical education, networking opportunities, educational dinner meetings, several social events a year, and a quarterly newsletter known as Progress Notes.
Your county medical society is here to promote the health and well-being of all the citizens of Marion County. We look forward to helping you stay healthy.
