Romanian GPs are organized since 1991 in a professional association called the National Society of Family Medicine (SNMF), WONCA member since 1994. Membership is not mandatory, but each year more GPs join the County Associations (AMF) which are members of the National Society. SNMF organizes through its county associations 2 National and 8 Regional Conferences each year, over 30 workshops, courses, symposia, publishes a handbook each year distributed for free to all GPs, developed an eLearning platform for GPs and a strong communication network: e-mail, telephone, SMS, newsletter, website, online message board (3300 members, 500 messages/month). Romania is also represented in most WONCA networks – EURACT, EGPRN, EURIPA and VdGM.
