Doc Talk IX a Success!
The ninth Annual Doc Talk was held Saturday, April 14 at the Capital City Mall in Camp Hill. This was a great opportunity for our members to share their knowledge and expertise with members of the public who might not have ready access to care. Thank you to those who participated, with a special thank you to Andrew Richards, MD, DCMS Doc Talk Chair. We would also like to acknowledge our sponsors who helped make this event happen, AmeriHealth Mercy and PinnacleHealth.
We look forward to next year's event!

Healthier Life Steps
The AMA National Service Project is "Healthier Life Steps." Encourage your staff, colleagues, patients and the public to take healthier life steps by improving diet and exercise and reducing alcohol consumption and tobacco use. The AMA website has information, handouts and posters. There are several ways you can obtain information:
1. Do a google search for "AMA Healthier Life Steps".
2. Email Healthier.LifeSteps@ama-assn.org for questions and information.
3. Visit the AMA website.
As physicians, let's be examples to our patients by making healthier life choices for ourselves as well.
Planning to Make a Charitable Contribution?
We urge you to consider making tax-free contributions to two very worthwhile charitable programs near and dear to us -- the Scott A. Gunder, MD, DCMS Scholarship Fund and the DCMS Alliance.
The Gunder Fund annually awards a $1,500 scholarship to a 2nd-year medical student at the Penn State College of Medicine. (View our Scholarship page for information on this year’s recipient.) To make an online contribution to the Gunder Fund, go to The Foundation of the Pennsylvania Medical Society and designate your gift to the Gunder Scholarship Fund.
The Dauphin County Medical Society Alliance provides a tremendous amount of value in our community and is continually recognized for its public outreach programs. To make a contribution to the Alliance, make your check payable to the DCMS Alliance, note that it is a contribution, and mail it to the DCMS Alliance, 777 E. Park Dr., Harrisburg, PA 17111. Thank you for your generosity!
