The HCMA Physician Family Alliance is a group of physicians' spouses,
partners and family members, whose aim is to promote good health and health
education, to engage in charitable community endeavors, and to foster friendly
relations among physicians’ families and the communities in which they live. We gather throughout the year in support of member initiatives
consistent with our mission and to socialize in a supportive atmosphere.
It wasn’t long ago that the Alliance was called the Auxiliary, and our
members were only female spouses of physicians. After all, there was a time
when most physicians were men. My how times have changed! And, the Alliance has
changed with them. We invite you to join with us in support of our medical
families. Membership applications are available by clicking on the Membership
link below.
Benefits of becoming the Alliance member:
- Mentor Family Program: This program pairs newly relocated families or new attendings with experienced physician families, providing guidance and support.
- Engaging Events: Family Physician Day, Pictures with Santa, Spring Egg Hunt, Adults-Only Happy Hour, & more!
- Relocation Support: We offer connections to rental property owners and relocation guides specific to your hospital.
- Local Recommendations: Vendors, services, childcare, restaurants - all the best Tampa has to offer!
- Holiday Hosting: Physician families who don't have immediate family nearby or whose spouses are on call will have a seat at the table and won't spend holidays alone.
- Volunteer Opportunities: Join us in collaborating with local hospitals and organizations, giving back to our community.
We, the Officers of the HCMAPFA, hope to see you soon at an Alliance event.
