Description:
A twice monthly meeting for physicians, residents and medical students who are experiencing the rigors of medicine and could benefit from collegial support.  These meetings, now in their 21st year, are an anonymous support group for doctoral level health professionals with any form of substance abuse, mental illness, behavioral problems, or physical illness. Those significant in the lives of the doctor, including friends and family members, are also welcome to attend.  These meetings are on a first name basis only and a potluck dinner is typically served, so feel free to bring something if you wish.

Please Join Us!
Meetings are open.  Please join us at any time!

If you have any questions regarding the group and how it works, please do not hesitate to call John at 508-284-4177 or Michael at 781-596-0665.

We look forward to seeing you and anyone significant in your life.
