The ACMS Bulletin has been connecting and informing Allegheny County physicians since 1911 — and now, we’re entering a new era of storytelling. Beginning in January 2026, The Bulletin will shift from a monthly print publication to a quarterly print publication.

As part of this transformation, we’re forming a new Editorial Board and seeking a Medical Editor to help lead this exciting evolution. If you’re ready to make an impact in physician communication and community engagement, contact Sara Hussey at shussey@acms.org!
