About GPA

One association, every general practitioner in the district.

The General Practitioners Association (GPA) is a professional body of doctors committed to clinical excellence, continuous education and the wellbeing of both the medical community and the public it serves.

What began in 1991 as a small group of general practitioners meeting informally has grown into GPA (General Practitioners’ Association), the mother association of the medical community in Pune. Today, GPA is one of Pune’s most active medical associations, organizing CME conferences, representing doctors on healthcare policy matters, conducting community health camps, and providing a platform for doctors to connect, collaborate, and grow beyond the clinic.

Registered as Regd. No.: MH446/2009/PUNE, GPA continues to serve as a strong representative body for general practitioners and the wider medical fraternity.

GPA is affiliated to FFPAI.
