Uniting all who care for the sick
The CPGSA is an association of healthcare professionals that informs, organizes, and inspires its members to uphold the principles of the Catholic faith in the practice of medicine. We come together to fellowship, to serve and to be Christ to a world in need of healing.
The Guild is not just for physicians but also dentists, nurses, pharmacists, therapists and all others who practice healthcare professionally. Students preparing for careers in healthcare are especially welcome. Anyone who takes an interest in healthcare from a fully Catholic perspective is invited to join us!
Our Mission:
To provide a professional resource which embodies the practice of authentic Catholic medicine in support of the Archdiocese of San Antonio, and to foster networking, collaboration, community service, education, formation, and outreach in accordance with the principles of the Catholic Medical Association.
