Welcome

Dear colleague,

Thank you for choosing, to join the Saskatchewan Medical Association (SMA). The SMA provides advocacy, leadership and support in all phases of your career, as a student, a resident, a physician in active practice and in retirement. The SMA has numerous programs and services that make a positive difference in both your professional and personal life.

This guide outlines the wide range of benefits available to you and your family, and how to access them. By joining the SMA, you automatically become a member of the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) and can access all the comprehensive products, services and resources of that membership as well.

As the voice of organized medicine in Saskatchewan, the SMA represents specialists, family physicians, residents and medical students in a way that honours the values of physicians, such as collegiality and quality patient care. Our voice gets stronger with each member, helping the SMA advocate for a quality health-care system for Saskatchewan, and advance the honour and integrity of the profession.

We hope this guide serves as a useful resource. Should you have any questions about the SMA or about practising medicine in Saskatchewan, please don’t hesitate to contact us at any time.
