Memberships in the Society

The Society for Participatory Medicine has active, engaged members representing dozens of countries around the world. Our members include patients, physicians, nurses, caregivers, policy makers, consultants, and others who are part of the healthcare system in their country. Your support and contributions to the cause of participatory medicine will not only help you become better engaged with your own (or a loved one’s) healthcare and treatment options, but will also help spread the word about the value of participatory medicine.

Become a member!We rely on the support and contributions of our members. Your dues directly enable our programs designed to help forward the goals of participatory medicine. We provide a host of resources — such as our online community, groundbreaking journal, and creative learning exchange events — that are only made possible due to your continued support.
