Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS)

The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons – AAPS – is a non-partisan professional association of physicians in all types of practices and specialties across the country.

Since 1943, AAPS has been dedicated to the highest ethical standards of the Oath of Hippocrates and to preserving the sanctity of the patient-physician relationship and the practice of private medicine.

They believe in the sanctity of the patient-physician relationship, and promote free-market solutions to problems in medical financing. They publish the quarterly peer-reviewed Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons. They support private medicine through education, advocacy, and litigation.

Their motto, “omnia pro aegroto” means “all for the patient.”
