Leadership

TCMS is made up of physician committees. Physicians volunteer their time to determine the priorities and actions of the society. The full-time TCMS staff works to implement the goals of the committees, keep the membership informed, and coordinate both social and educational events.

       2. Board of Ethics (seven members elected by the society to serve 3 year terms)
       3. Medical Legislation (appointed by the president to serve 1 year term)

       7. Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (appointed by the president to serve 1 year term)
       8. Constitution and Bylaws (?) (appointed by the president to serve 1 year term)

Committee members are appointed by the TCMS president.
