THE APHP IS DEDICATED TO PROVIDING A SAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR MEDICAL AND COUNSELING PROFESSIONALS TO CONNECT WITH AND TALK TO OTHER PROFESSIONALS ABOUT THE STRESS AND DEMANDS INVOLVED IN A MODERN PRACTICE.

Alabama Law requires physicians to report any other physician who may be unable to practice medicine with reasonable skill and safety to patients by reasons of illness, drugs/alcohol, or mental or physical conditions. Reporting to the APHP fulfills this requirement!
