The Journal of the Arkansas Medical Society
In this time of reinvention and resilience, the Arkansas Medical Society is excited to announce the launch of a redesigned Journal of the Arkansas Medical Society.

Established in 1880, The Journal’s original mission was to provide valuable information and scientific articles to member physicians and serve as a communications tool for the Society. With this new look, The Journal will continue to bolster our mission of empowering physicians and improving medicine in the state of Arkansas in a brand-new way.
While our goal of providing value to our members through the publication is not changing, we are redesigning what, how, and when the Journal is published. Previously a 12-issue magazine, The Journal will now be published quarterly, beginning with the Spring 2022 issue that will be released mid-April 2022. The Journal has a current circulation of 4,200, which includes membership of the Society and paid subscribers.
The Journal has a fresh, new appearance with content that is member-focused and contains timely feature articles, updates on practice management, insurance, legislation, health policy, as well as member news, leadership updates, member profiles, and medical school news.
