POMA provides COMMUNICATION to our members, to our patients, to legislators, and to the public!
POMA provides a COMMUNITY to our members so we can be the best osteopathic physicians possible!
POMA provides EDUCATION to our members so we can provide the best care possible to our patients!
POMA provides INFLUENCE to those who can help us to serve our patients best!

POMA is our professional organization in Pennsylvania that serves us as osteopathic physicians. Now is our opportunity to serve our members, our colleagues, and our patients.

Our members are the motivation behind everything that POMA does. Every committee, task force, and work group within the organization is led by and driven by POMA members like you. And we need our members to continue that tradition by volunteering their time, talent, and expertise to these groups.

POMA  committee members provide support from technology to political advocacy, writing articles to presenting CME, mentoring to finance, and everything in between. We all have unique talents and this is our chance to share them with the organization that serves us. Learn more about the volunteer experience by listening to our podcast episode, Volunteers: The Backbone of POMA.

I encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity and sign up - I look forward to working with you!

Respectfully,

George Wolters, DO
POMA President
