The Sri Lanka Medical Association (SLMA) is the professional association for doctors and surgical professionals in Sri Lanka. It is considered to be the oldest national professional organisation of medical professionals in Australasia.[1][2] The association does not regulate or certify doctors, a responsibility which lies with the Sri Lanka Medical Council.
