MetroDoctors Magazine

Published quarterly, MetroDoctors is the quarterly membership journal of Advocates for Better Health (ABH) and serves as a non-biased, collaborative communication vehicle to feature articles of interest to physicians and healthcare administrators in the seven-county metropolitan area. It provides the opportunity, through one publication, to reach a unique and diverse population of physicians representing all specialties and subspecialties; all stages of medicine from medical student to resident to active practicing to retired; and all sizes of practice from small, independent offices to large, multi-specialty institutions.   

Relevant editorial content serving as a platform to promote ABH’s role as a medical society wholly focused on public health and physician wellness are featured, as well as important healthcare policies and/or legislation. 

The goals, objectives and projects of Advocates for Better Health and ABH | The Foundation are also promoted. MetroDoctors is distributed in print and electronic formats. Read the current issue by clicking on the cover or read previous issues here.
