We are the leading trade and professional body for doctors
Member-led, we campaign for better terms and conditions and on issues that matter most to the profession. From collective bargaining and negotiations to advice and support, we represent doctors and medical students across the UK.
We campaign
Our campaigns are led by members and grounded in the issues that affect doctors every day. Our campaigns successfully influence employers, government and the wider public.
We support you
From workplace bullying and contract negotiations to fair wages and better conditions, if you’re facing problems at work, we will defend your rights and support you.
Policy and research for the medical profession
We advocate for doctors at all levels of government and across the UK. Our policy positions are shaped by membership and underpinned by extensive research.
Annual representative meeting
Our annual meeting is the democratic forum for elected members to set the agenda and direction of the BMA. The meeting brings together representatives from across the UK to shape our priorities and hold the organisation to account.
The leadership team
Our leadership team is led by doctors who are elected by the membership. The team sets the organisations direction and ensures members’ priorities drive what we do.
