Member Benefits

The Rhode Island Medical Women's Association was founded by women doctors to help themselves meet the challenge of tomorrow. Today, RIMWA has taken an active role in providing a support network for the professional and personal growth of women doctors in our area. Women physicians comprise 1/2 of the physician population. Together we have, now more than ever, the potential for a great collective spirit, one with prowess-one that really works to help manage our futures in a systematic organized way.

If you are a practicing physician, house officer, or fellow, RIMWA provides you with:

  • A meeting ground to interact with colleagues on academic, political and social issues critical to women doctors and patients.
  • An active involvement in the pursuit of a work environment more sensitive to the lifestyles and professional interests of women physicians.
  •  A referral network for women physicians establishing their own practices.
  • Social functions with other women professionals.
  • Please support our continued effort to improve the quality of our professional and personal lives as women physicians. Join us now!
