Facebook site of the Auckland Chinese Medical Association (ACMA). Charity Registration No. CC41715 The topic was Parkinson's Disease.

On 22 June 1988, twenty-two registered medical practitioners of Chinese descent gathered in the home of Dr Gam Lee to discuss the formation of an association. The first clinical meeting was held on 13 November 1988 at the Mandarin Szechuan restaurant in Birkenhead. The first executive committee was elected and the first newsletter was published in January 1989. ACMA became a registered charity in 2008.
