The Christian Medical & Dental Associations® (CMDA) is made up of the Christian Medical Association (CMA) and the Christian Dental Association (CDA). CMDA provides resources, networking opportunities, education and a public voice for Christian healthcare professionals and students.
 

CMDA educates, encourages, and equips Christian healthcare professionals to glorify God.  Christian healthcare professionals glorify God by following Christ, serving with excellence and compassion, caring for all people, and advancing Biblical principles impacting healthcare within the Church and throughout the world.
   
We look to develop an outreach event with a special speaker on topics of general interest to all students by faculty, local healthcare professionals or guest speakers. We find this to be one of the most effective ways to create opportunities for the gospel on an academic campus.

Tentative Schedule for 2024-2025

The primary purpose of the OU CMDA is to create a faith community where Christian students can grow in their faith during the health care training process. The typical CMDA meeting uses a combination of book and topical Bible studies which help ground students in God's Word as they prepare inviting faculty and local practitioners to speak on topics, which highlight the integration of faith and practice.
