The practice of medicine in Maryland is regulated by two Boards of
Medical Examiners, one representing the Medical and Chirurgical
Faculty (State Medical Society) and the other representing the Mary-
land State Homeopathic Medical Society. Each Board consists of
eight members appointed by their respective societies, two being
elected each year to serve for a term of four years. All members
must be engaged in the actual practice of medicine (Code 1951, Art.
43, sec. 118).

The function of the Boards is to test the fitness of physicians for
the legal practice of medicine in this State and to issue licenses to
those qualified. The Boards may revoke the license of any physician
who thereby forfeits the privilege of practicing medicine. Candidates
for licenses applying to the Board representing the Medical and Chi-
rurgical Faculty must be graduates of medical schools approved by
the American Medical Association and the Association of American
Medical Colleges. Graduates of foreign medical schools must present
diplomas from medical schools offering medical education equivalent
to that given in approved medical schools of the United States. Each
candidate from a foreign medical school is considered individually.
The qualification for practice is determined either by written examina-
tion given by the Boards, or by recognition of a license obtained after
a written examination in a reciprocating State, or by endorsement of
a certificate of the National Board of Medical Examiners. Examina-
tions are held in June and December of each year.
