Welcome to American Association of Physicians of Indian Origin
Founded in 1982, the American Association of Physicians of Indian Origin represents a conglomeration of more than 80,000 practicing physicians in the United States.
In addition, it also serves as a platform for more than 40,000 medical students, residents and fellows of Indian origin in this country. The AAPI YPS/MSRF (Young Physicians Section/Medical Students, Residents and Fellows Section) runs under the main AAPI umbrella to give representation to them. 1 in every 7 people in the USA is touched by the care of a physician of Indian origin at any given time.
AAPI also has a Charitable Foundation (AAPI-CF) that spearheads free clinics and health fairs in India. Currently 7 such clinics are being actively run in various states of India under the AAPI flagship.
