Australian Indian Medical Association [AIMA] has been established in 2007 to look after the professional and educational needs of the NSW-based doctors of Indian background. As we are a part of our community, and have close interactions with the members of our community, we also wish to participate in some of the relevant community activities to educate them about the health issues.

We see ourselves as a group of doctors which will act as a lobby group to enhance/promote the status of our members in the eyes of our community in particular and all Australian communities in general. We will do everything and all things which will help us achieve these goals.

We have felt a growing need of an association which will function as a special group to look after the interests of doctors of Indian background. Unlike several other special medical associations in NSW, we did not have an "Indian" association. AIMA will fulfill this role.

We envisage that we will have a robust, assertive and proactive association and will look after all aspects of the needs of our members. Our activities will include the best CME activities for our members, community educational activities, supporting/mentoring our doctors who are undergoing AMC registration process and interacting with AMA, other associations, RACGP, and NSW Medical Board.

We will welcome all inputs from every one to help achieve our aim to be recognized as the best association in NSW.
