About Us

The Onondaga County Medical Society's main mission is to advocate for healthcare needs of our community.  


We work on critical public health issues affecting our physicians in Onondaga County, and their capacity to provide high quality care to their patients.  ONCMS is the leading advocacy organization uniting physicians, residents and medical students to promote quality health care for all the people of Central New York.


Founded in 1806, the Onondaga County Medical Society (OCMS) is the premier professional association for physicians in Central New York. At over 1,000 physician members, OCMS is among the largest and longest tenured business entities found within our community, representing a diverse group of medical students, residents, and physicians from across all specialties and in all settings. For over two hundred years, the Medical Society has promoted the ethical and competent practice of medicine in our region.


The Onondaga County Medical Society is a professional organization that serves physicians in their roles as healers, teachers and advocates.  We build relationships with local legislators and our community to provide our patients with access to care.  We provide fellowship, support autonomy and promote wellness for our members.


Members are physicians from all specialties.
