MSPEI Membership
To all physicians, medical students and residents, we hope you will choose beautiful Prince Edward Island as your place to work, live and play.
MSPEI is the professional association, representing all PEI physicians, medical students and residents. When you decide to practice in PEI, you will apply to be a member with our Society.
MSPEI is here to support you, advocate for you and your patients and provide you with opportunities to connect with your colleagues. We are also your sole bargaining unit when it comes to negotiating your compensation and benefits with the government of PEI.
Your membership dues support this work.
