President's Message

Message Dated June 7, 2010

Dear GAPI member,

It's my privilege to take over as the president of GAPI at this crucial time for medical community. I am honored and humbled to have this opportunity. I would like to thank Dr Santanu Das for his excellent service as the president over the past year.

I would like to thank all the past presidents, Board members and board of trustees for their hard work they have put in over the years.

As GAPI President, I want to focus on the following key areas:

  • -Increase the participation by young members including medical students, residents and fellows.
  • - Increase membership
  • - Increase our visibility through organizing Health fairs, participation in charitable and other causes
  • - More involvement in local community working with organizations like GIACC, VIBHA etc
  • - Find ways to make GAPI meaningful to members by increasing the membership benefits like discounted prices for malpractice, long term care and medical transcription
  • - Improve the web site further and make it more interactive.

This is a critical time for our organization and our profession. As we debate health care reform, it is extremely important for us to participate in a meaningful way to educate our members. I respectfully ask for your support as we work together to strengthen our organization this year and in the years ahead.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your trust and friendship and look forward to working with you this year and years ahead.

Thank you.
Kind regards,

Sreeni Gangasani MD FACC.
