Abstract

The constitutive meeting of Vinkovci's Medical Club was held on the 28th March 1927 in the office of the mayor of Vinkovci. Twenty-five years later, on the 15th March 1952, physicians from the Vinkovci and Zupanja area founded the Regional branch Vinkovci of Croatian Medical Association, which was founded in Zagreb in 1874. Since then, for the last 55 years, the Regional branch Vinkovci-Zupanja of Croatian Medical Association continuously put a lot of effort in ameliorating the quality of life and numerous physicians helped to improve healthcare in our County, upgrading the expert and scientific work and promoting the principles of medical ethics and collegiality through their work, lectures and professional and scientific conferences. The Regional branch Vinkovci-Zupanja of Croatian Medical Association currently has over 200 members and was awarded for its work with Golden plaquette "Emblem of Vinkovci" in 2007.
