ACP Chapters and Regions
ACP chapters offer local programs and activities for ACP members, such as scientific meetings and awards programs. ACP has chapters across the United States and the world. Some chapters are so large they are divided into two or more regions. Each chapter is managed by an elected Governor, who serves on the Board of Governors.
Who We Are
The American College of Physicians (ACP) is a national organization of internists — physicians who specialize in the prevention, detection and treatment of illnesses in adults. ACP is the largest medical-specialty organization and second-largest physician group in the United States. Its membership of 126,000 includes internists, internal medicine subspecialists, and medical students, residents, and fellows.
