The idea of establishing a local Christian Medical and Dental Fellowship was started in 1975 when a group of doctors and medical students attended the 5th International Congress of Christian Physicians. They were amazed by the strong fellowship and the effective witness of the Singapore medical group. They acquired the calling of forming a Fellowship in Hong Kong. Their vision was shared with many others resulting in the formation of the Interim Executive Committee in May 1976. After 5 months of preparatory work, the 1st Annual General Meeting was held in September when the Fellowship was officially found. At that time, it was called Christian Medical Fellowship (CMF). In 1988, it was renamed as The Christian Medical and Dental Fellowship of Hong Kong till now.
It represents a group of people who believe in the same Christian doctrine and work in the same medical profession. Yet far more than that, we share the same faith, the same hope and the same love which leads to the same vision and mission in our service of medicine.
