President Message

Dear members
I would like to welcome all PMASA members and partners as New President . Yet another very successful and busy year for the PMASA. We held several activities including two mock exams, our annual gala dinner, multiple CME activities, recent CPR workshop and a cricket match with the South Australian Indian Medical Association (SAIMA). I would like to thank our PMASA team for their tremendous efforts this year, as these events would not have been possible without their support. The association now also has strong ties with the Australian Medical Association (AMA) and other medical organisations within South Australia. We would also like to thank the AMA once again for their continuous support of our organisation.

The PMASA remains committed to providing on going support to its members, which is only possible thanks to the voluntary work done by the PMASA team. We would also like to encourage our members to actively participate in management affairs of the association. Should any of our members wish to take on an active role within the association, please do not hesitate to contact myself or any of the other team members. I would also like to congratulate our members who have successfully passed their fellowship or AMC exams.

I wish all our members the best for 2017-2018
Dr. Rizwan Latif
