Dental Professionals in the North America.
Started in the summer of 1992 at Poncos, Pennsylvania, NASMDA has grown to an organization of

provide a platform for Sikh medical and dental professionals to network and interact with each other
while promoting the ideals and the mission of Guru Nanak. The members of NASMDA have been
actively involved with helping out and supporting various Sikh organizations, young medical students
and physicians. Every year an Annual Conference is held to bring all the members of NASMDA
together to share and hear from prominent members from the healthcare world about research and
advances in medical sciences. This conference also provides the opportunity to network, share and

We have made attracting young Sikh physicians/dentists the major focus of this year’s meeting. We
are offering travel assistance for medical students and residents/fellows to attend the meeting. The
assistance application form is attached.
I would like to quote the goals of NASMDA from our bylaws:
1. To promote the interest of Sikh physicians and dentists who reside in United States, Canada
and elsewhere.
2 . To support Sikh Physicians and Dentists, as well as other brilliant and deserving Sikh
professionals pursuing their careers in those fields or any other fields.
3. To foster long-term associations and friendships among Sikh physicians and dentists, and to
promote medical and dental institutions and improve the delivery of service in the above fields in
their homeland.
4. To arrange for annual meetings of its members to exchange information, discuss policies,
establish future course of action, and from time to time consider making amendments to the
constitution. The Organization hold elections for the office bearers and consider other appropriate
business at such meetings.
5. The organization will make efforts to have educational programs during these annual
meetings presented by the members of the organization or its guests.
6. The organization will help medical and dental graduates to establish practices in different
parts of the country as well as help them to obtain adequate postgraduate training in their fields of
their choices.
NASMDA members have tired to implement some of these goals with varying levels of success.
Please get involved and lets implement as many of these goals as we can. If there is a project that
you feel you can start or contribute to, do not hesitate do get in touch with your executive committee.
It is your association and where you take it is up to you.
Please send your email address to nasmda@gmail.com. This is very important for timely
communication.
We also have FACEBOOK page that you can visit.
I have pharmaceutical support letter attached for our meeting. Please feel free to share it with
your pharmaceutical Reps.
Lets have a great 2010. I look forward to a fabulous meeting in Baltimore. I am hopeful the younger
Sikh physicians/dentists take advantage of the travel assistance and come to the meeting to make
many new friends. Lets get the word out for your own organization.
Thanks to all on the executive committee for sharing their ideas to further our goals. Lets work
collectively to implement these ideas as well as suggestions from all the members.
Sincerely,
Mohan Deep Singh Dhillon, MD, FAAAI, FRCP(C)
