An experienced radiologist, Dr. James Summa worked as an interventional radiologist and partner with White Rock Radiology in Dallas, Texas, for 14 years. Dr. James Summa is a member of the Texas Medical Association (TMA).
One of the largest state medical societies in the country, the Texas Medical Association is dedicated to improving medical practices throughout the state by giving the industry a unified voice and promoting legislative and regulatory advocacy. Founded in 1853, the TMA represents nearly 50,000 members. It offers a range of practice-help services to both the individual professional and an office in such areas as billing and coding, practice operations, and insurance.
To prepare physicians and medical professionals for the medical landscape of the future, the Texas Medical Association sponsors an annual fall conference and a leadership college for young physicians, in addition to TexMed, an industry educational showcase. Open to all members, the three-day fall conference features resources for a wide variety of committees, councils, and caucuses, and gives members a chance to network and engage in continuing medical education. The TMA leadership college, in contrast, is open only to members under 40 years of age or who have not been practicing for more than eight years. Since 2010, leadership college courses have helped create physician leaders with the skills necessary to bridge the gap between health care policymakers, clinicians, and their communities.
