Celebrating our 50 Year Members

Celebrating our 50 Year Members

AMA (NSW) is pleased to honour members who dedicated their lives to medicine and remained committed and supportive of the Australian Medical Association throughout their careers.

AMA (NSW) honoured our 50 Year Members at a special luncheon in early April. Whilst the event is typically an annual occasion, it has been on hold for several years due to COVID. Consequently, this long overdue celebration was particularly significant. In addition to honouring members who reached 50-year membership with the AMA (NSW) in 2022, AMA (NSW) honoured members who also reached the milestone in 2019, 2020 and 2021.

AMA (NSW) President, Dr Michael Bonning welcomed the special guests and congratulated them for their commitment to the profession.

Our 50-year members made lasting contributions to medicine through practice, teaching, and mentoring. Many of these members have also been active in medico-politics and served on various boards and committees for Colleges, Societies and Associations.

Through all these roles, they have improved the lives of patients, colleagues, and the generations of doctors who followed in their footsteps.

Whilst many of our 50-year members are now retired, they remain an integral part of the fabric of Australia’s health system.

In the five decades that they have been part of the Australian Medical Association, there have been exciting innovations in medicine as well as many challenges.

It is only with their continued support that AMA (NSW) has been able to evolve and respond to the issues that have risen over the years.

We value the continued support of our long-standing members and thank them for their commitment.
