Medical Society of Virginia

The Medical Society of Virginia (MSV), is a professional association of more than 11,000 Virginia physicians, medical students, residents, physician assistants and physician assistant students. It was founded in December 1820, and incorporated in 1824. It has been responsible for the creation of the State Board of Health, the State Board of Medical Examiners, the Board of Medicine and the MSV Review Organization (which has evolved into the Virginia Health Quality Center).[1] Each of these now independent entities had their beginnings within the Medical Society of Virginia. This organization is the only association representing all Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) and Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.), regardless of specialty or type of practice setting in Virginia.

gollark: The encrypted SNI thing isn't yet deployed anywhere seriously as far as I know. Except maybe Cloudflare.
gollark: No, there's an SNI thing as well as that, the *header* is encrypted.
gollark: Technically, HTTPS does *not* currently encrypt the server name indicator thing (domain it's connecting to).
