The Christian Medical Fellowship unites and equips Christian doctors, midwives and nurses to live and speak for Jesus Christ. We were formed in 1949 and there are currently 5,000 doctors, 900 medical and nursing students and 300 nurses and midwives as members. We also have a growing number of Christians in the allied health professions who are members or connect with us at the local level.
The aims include:
•Discipleship - to unite Christian doctors and medical students in Christ, and to encourage them to deepen their faith, live like Christ, and serve him obediently, particularly through acting competently and with compassion in their medical practice.
•Evangelism - to encourage Christian doctors and medical students to be witnesses for Christ among all those they meet.
•Mission - to mobilise and support all Christian doctors, medical students and other healthcare professionals, especially members, in serving Christ throughout the world.
•Values - to promote Christian values, especially in bioethics and healthcare, among doctors and medical students, in the church and in society.
