The Asian Physician Advisory Committee (APAC) was established at St. Mary’s Medical Center in 1995. The committee’s goal was and continues to help integrate new Asian physicians into the San Francisco medical community. The committee provides social support and many networking opportunities for new and established physicians alike. For the past 15 years, APAC has remained a strong and influential group within the city. Additionally, the group provides service to the community with free health screenings and information sessions.
APAC meets monthly on Friday mornings at St. Mary’s Medical Center and also holds quarterly dinner meetings at various San Francisco restaurants. For more information or to become a member, please contact us.
