About TCMDA

Christian Communiity in Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Lillington, and Beyond

Welcome to the Triangle CMDA

We are the Triangle chapter of the Christian Medical & Dental Associations, serving Central North Carolina and connecting with a thriving community across the state. We bring together Christian healthcare professionals and students for fellowship, encouragement, and meaningful ministry—right where faith and medicine meet.

A Community with Purpose

CMDA unites the Christian Medical Association and the Christian Dental Association, creating a network of healthcare providers and trainees who are committed to living out their faith in healthcare.

Whether you’re practicing, in training, or exploring your calling, you’ll find:

  • Authentic relationships with like-minded professionals
  • Opportunities for spiritual growth and encouragement
  • Practical resources for integrating faith and practice
  • A voice in today’s most important healthcare conversations


Our History

The Triangle Chapter of CMDA has been around in various forms since the early 1990's. In-home student meetings and in-clinic Bible studies were the foundation brought together as several area physicians saw a need to disciple students and encourage one another. As God brought people together and a vision emerged, the local group eventually joined with the national ministries of the Christian Medical and Dental Associations. As an ever growing and evolving ministry, we are always looking to innovate, invite in new friends, and build up the Body of Christ in healthcare. Over the decades, this has included student groups, practitioner Bible studies, collaborations with churches and other para-church ministries, mission trips, continuing education, mentoring, and more.

With students, we primarily work at UNC, Duke and Campbell, but collaborate with ECU, High Point, Wilmington and Asheville as well.
