Your Alma Mater. Your Network. Your Legacy. 

Welcome to the online home of the USA Medical Alumni Association (MAA). Since our founding in 1980, the MAA has existed to support and champion our complete alumni family—from our nearly 3,500 MD and PhD graduates to our resident and fellowship alumni trained through USA Health. Powered by member dues and annual fund support, we strengthen professional networks, celebrate milestone traditions, and invest directly in the future of healthcare.
