Quality health care begins with truth. When doctors can speak openly and offer reliable advice without interference, patients gain not only medical guidance but also confidence and peace of mind. We stand firmly for protecting this vital relationship.

Our Commitment to Patient-Centred Care
We believe that quality health care begins with compassion and expertise. Our patients are cared for by dedicated, highly trained, and skilled professionals who place safety and trust at the heart of every decision.
At GMDOA, we stand firm in protecting the integrity of medical practice. We actively oppose scope‑of‑practice expansions that compromise patient safety, ensuring that the profession remains guided by competence, responsibility, and ethical standards.
Preserving the Medical Profession
Our mission is to safeguard the values of medicine while advancing the profession through:
• Health Policy Leadership – shaping policies that strengthen health systems and protect patients.
• Doctor Representation – voicing workplace challenges and advocating for fair solutions.
• Dispute Resolution – addressing medical scheme conflicts and fostering constructive relationships.
• Continuous Education – promoting lifelong learning and adoption of new practices.
• Strategic Partnerships – building alliances that amplify advocacy for our members.
• Balanced Collaboration – working with authorities to improve health services while defending doctors against unfair treatment.
We remain committed to engaging government and stakeholders in regulatory reforms that enhance health care delivery, protect physicians from unjust liability, and strengthen the bond between doctors and patients.
A Shared Heritage of Care
Medicine is more than a profession—it is a calling rooted in centuries of service to the sick and suffering. Physicians have long fulfilled this duty with skill, selflessness, and courage. Today, we must renew that commitment to confront both natural and human‑made challenges that threaten global health.
By uniting across divides, we can overcome these challenges. Our collective patient is humanity itself, and together we strive to protect its wellbeing.
