From The Desk of The President
	BUCKS COUNTY MEDICAL SOCIETY JESSICA A. FELDMAN, MD Pictured is our President, Jessica A. Feldman, MD Dear Members, I'm honored to have the opportunity to serve as your President this year. Certainly, this will be a challenging year for medicine, and therefore a critical year for the physicians to play a role in the changes in healthcare. I see this position as not only a leadership role, but more importantly as being a representative for the physicians of Bucks County. It is imperative that every member feel as though their voice is being heard. I want you to know that I am always available and encourage you to contact me regarding any viewpoints, problems, or suggestions. Aside from the many issues facing healthcare on a national level, this is also a crucial year on a state and county level. The gubernatorial election, US senate election, and many other local elections for the midterm will hopefully give the physicians of Bucks county and Pennsylvania a chance to discuss and maybe even change some of the many obstacles confronting Pennsylvania medicine. I have several goals this year as President. First, and foremost is to bolster physician involvement in the society and increase membership. I also look will be serving on the board of BCHIP and will strive to promote support for the free clinics of Bucks County that are so desperately in need during these economic times. Also, I hope to offer more educational/CME programs such as the HIV program we had in 2009. In summary, I look forward to engaging the physicians of Bucks County and being a President that accurately and fairly represents all physicians views. At the end of the day, no matter how difficult and frustrating the politics of medicine may get, we must all stay focused on why we went into medicine. Providing the best patient care we can for all of the members of our community and protecting patient rights is the ultimate purpose of this society. I'm looking forward to this year and thank you again for this opportunity. Sincerely, Jessica
