For over 135 years, the Old North State Medical Society has stood as a beacon of hope and equality in North Carolina's healthcare system. Founded in 1887 by four pioneering African American physicians—Dr. Aaron McDuffie Moore, Dr. Manassa Thomas Pope, Dr. Lawson Andrew Scruggs, and Dr. J.T. Williams—ONSMS emerged from a time of profound racial discrimination when Black medical professionals were systematically excluded from mainstream medical societies and hospital privileges. Based in Greensboro, NC, this historic organization transformed adversity into resilience, creating a foundation of professional solidarity that has supported generations of minority healthcare providers. Today, ONSMS remains deeply rooted in its mission to educate and advocate for the most vulnerable populations in North Carolina—individuals and communities that consistently experience disparities in health outcomes. The organization has evolved beyond its original focus on African American physicians to embrace a broader commitment to health equity for all marginalized communities, including racial minorities, low-income individuals, and rural populations. ONSMS demonstrates unwavering dedication to mentoring the next generation of minority healthcare professionals, promoting affordable and quality healthcare, and fostering strong patient-physician relationships. The society's work encompasses critical awareness initiatives addressing mental health, vaccination, HIV prevention, domestic violence, and Medicaid access. By connecting compassionate physicians with underserved communities, ONSMS continues to be a driving force for transforming healthcare in North Carolina and beyond, honoring its legacy while shaping a more just and equitable future.
