By Erin Erwin—

Muncie, IN—Dr. Roberto Darroca has been elected president of the Indiana State Medical Association.

The Indiana State Medical Association (ISMA) is a federation of county and district medical societies across Indiana. Since its start in 1849, ISMA has provided continuing medical education to physicians about scientific and clinical developments in medicine. With more than 8,500 members, ISMA is dedicated to helping physicians provide the best possible healthcare for their patients.

“It’s an honor to have the confidence of the physicians of Indiana to represent them during this upcoming year. I have worked in organized medicine since medical school. It’s humbling that people have entrusted their faith in me to fight for them,” stated Darroca.

Darroca is a native of Richmond, Indiana. He graduated from Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI, with a B.S. in Biology and earned his medical degree from the IU School of Medicine. He completed his family medicine residency at Ball Memorial Hospital in Muncie, IN and his OBGYN residency training at Wright State University in Dayton, OH. He is board certified in obstetrics and gynecology. Darroca has been in practice in Muncie for more than 20 years, joining Community Physicians Network in 2013.
