The Medical Council on Alcohol
Who we are
The Medical Council on Alcohol is a charity primarily of medical practitioners and with associated medical practitioners concerned with the effects of alcoholic excess on health, and as such, seeks to ensure that medical students are suitably aware of the risks associated with alcohol both on their practice and their own health. As well as educating doctors and medical students the MCA continues to give advice to certain other bodies as well as being a link for doctors concerned about their own use of alcohol.
