Doctor's Chamber of Macedonia

The Doctor's Chamber of Macedonia was established on 5 June 1992 as a "'successor' of the former doctor’s chamber that existed on these territories in the third decade of the previous century in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia."[1] It is based in Skopje, North Macedonia. The organization initially included dentists, but in 1995 the dentists formed their own organization.[2] A similar organization existed in Yugoslavia in the 1930s.[3] Doctors are required to join in order to practice in the country.[1]

The organization complained in 2018 that there is a discrepancy between the available funds and the quality of service expected and that facilities are not used efficiently, the equipment is outdated, and staff are not being used effectively.[4]
