Since 1789, The Medical Society of South Carolina has served as the foremost association of physicians dedicated to pioneering advances in our region�s healthcare.
Through our partnership with the Roper St. Francis Healthcare System, we direct resources to support health and wellness-related charitable programs and organizations within the tri-county area. In addition, we direct resources and funds to support capital projects that continue the Roper St. Francis tradition of healing all people with compassion and excellence.
250 Years & Counting � For The Good of All
Through epidemics of yellow fever, cholera and small pox. Through war, earthquake, hurricanes and the great Charleston fire. Through HMOs, managed care and re-imagined healthcare systems. What has remained constant is the Medical Society of South Carolina�s resolve to pioneer, provide and protect the health of our community�s people � through the Roper St. Francis Healthcare System � and the physicians who work for the greater good.
