The Indian Medical Association (IMA) Tamilnadu is a voluntary organization, representing the entire spectrum of the modern allopathic medicine and its specialties in our State. The organization was started in the year 1940, by a band of dedicated doctors who ever deeply committed in upholding the dignity of the medical profession and also in the improvement of the quality of the medical service to the people of Tamilnadu especially to the poor.
The doctors hailing from Chennai City, (formerly Madras) and from the rural districts of Tiruchirappalli, Coimbatore, Vellore, Salem and Tirunelveli, took an active part in building up the Tamilnadu IMA. Several State Presidents and Secretaries of IMA TNSB belonged to these districts.
