Seychelles_Medical_and_Dental_Association
Seychelles Medical and Dental Association (SMDA) is a registered body consisting of the doctors and dentists working in the Republic of Seychelles.[1] Unlike the Seychelles Medical and Dental Council which has been formed by a law, the Medical Practitioners and Dentists Act, 1994, and which regulates the medical and dental profession, the Seychelles Medical and Dental Association focuses more on the career and socio-professional interests of doctors and dentists in Seychelles. In reality, it is a trade union for the doctors and dentists. Any doctor or dentist in Seychelles can become a member upon payment of the prescribed membership fees.
