The National Arab American Medical Association (NAAMA) is a nonprofit, nonpolitical, educational and humanitarian organization of medical and dental professionals of Arab descent. NAAMA was incorporated in California in 1975 and became a national organization in 1980. Currently, 27 chapters of NAAMA are established in the United States and Canada. This year, current President-elect Dr. Rouba Ali-Fehmi and the board of NAAMA decided to expand the influence of NAAMA to benefit students who are both interested in their culture as well as have an affinity for the medical sciences. The University of Michigan chapter of the NAAMA NextGen is the debut on-campus NAAMA-affiliated organization, and hopefully the first of many nationwide. Our mission is to help students explore their interest in medicine by providing opportunities to observe or shadow physicians, assisting them with resumes and the medical school application processes, and incorporate the charitable goals of NAAMA by organizing volunteer trips to communities in need both domestically and internationally.
