Meet the physicians building the future of personal medicine
Physicians want practices that last. Partners want to help them get there. Once a year in Atlanta, the Concierge Medicine Forum puts them in the same room.
Which one are you?
Everyone in this room is building something. Start with what you want to walk away with.
Get in front of physicians who are deciding
- About 7 in 10 registrants are physicians or practice teams
- 1 in 4 is a physician still exploring the model
- Real conversations, not badge scans
Leave with a clear next step for your practice
- Practical sessions on starting, growing and sustaining a practice
- Peers who have already done it
- Workshop day plus the two-day main Forum
Share what you have learned with people who will use it
- An education-only stage
- An audience that wants practical answers
- Room to lead a real conversation

Good intentions get lost in the noise
Too many events end with a stack of business cards and no real next step. Physicians lose time. Partners lose trust. Patients lose out.
The right people are hard to reach
Physicians in membership-based medicine are spread out, busy and wary of being sold to.
Conversations stay shallow
Pitches get tuned out. Both sides go home without what they came for.
Healthcare deserves better
Patients deserve care built on time and relationship. Physicians deserve partners who help.
We have been in this room since the beginning
We know what it takes to build something new in healthcare, because we have spent nearly two decades listening to the physicians who did. Independent since 2007. The industry's convener since 2017. Education on stage, physicians at the center.
It is no longer about being the best doctor in the world, but about being the best doctor for the world, for patients, and for the local community.A guiding principle of Concierge Medicine Today

The math behind the metric
From the first Forum in 2017 to 2026.
Hosted in Atlanta. Attended by the nations.
Many people assume most of the room is local. The data says otherwise.
"Most attendees come from Georgia and the Southeast."
Here is the truth. CMF calls Atlanta home, so Georgia sends more people than any other single state. But the largest state is not the majority of the room. About 4 in 5 people travel in from somewhere else, and they come on purpose.
travel in from outside Georgia
come from outside the Southeast
Georgia has never been more than about a quarter of registrants in any year reviewed. The rest of the room flies or drives in from across the country, plus Canada, Europe, Asia and beyond.

Welcome to the Concierge Medicine Forum
Since we first gathered in 2017, the Concierge Medicine Forum by Concierge Medicine Today has served as the industry's annual clinical and business education conference. Our growth reflects the growth of the field itself. Over the years, we have been honored to host more than 200 speakers and thought leaders from some of the most prominent medical institutions and healthcare business organizations in the country. Today we continue that tradition, bringing together the people shaping the future of personalized care.

This is our home. You are our guest.
We chose Atlanta on purpose, and we come back every year on purpose. A great experience is one you can count on.
Easy to reach
Atlanta's airport was the world's busiest in 2025, which makes it one of the most connected cities to fly into from across the country and around the world.
Predictable by design
Same city, same standard, every year. Returning guests know what to expect. First-time guests get our best on day one.
Hospitality as a standard
Every physician, partner and speaker is a guest in our home. We anticipate needs, remember names and follow through.
Worth inviting others to
When an experience is consistently good, people bring a colleague the next year. That is how this room keeps growing.
Built on systems
A Forum that lasts is like a practice that lasts. It runs on clear systems and a sustainable pace, not last-minute heroics.
Momentum you can feel
Each year builds on the last. Fewer surprises, deeper relationships and more progress from one October to the next.
is what makes concierge medicine work for patients. It is also what makes this Forum work for the people in it.

Methodology and important disclosures
About the data
- "People in the room" figures (2017 to 2026) come from Concierge Medicine Today's internal annual Forum records and include attendees, speakers, sponsors and guests. The 2020 Forum was virtual, and its figure is an organizer estimate. Growth rates are calculated from these figures: 3.3x compares 2026 with 2017, and about 21% is the compound annual growth rate from 2021 to 2026. These figures were provided by the organization and were not independently audited.
- All other figures come from online registration records (2022 to 2026) and a 2019 attendee list with work ZIP codes. These records do not include speakers, sponsors, guests or others added outside the registration form. Duplicates, transfers and cancellations were not reconciled.
- Averages pool or average results across the cycles reviewed. Year-to-year results vary around these averages. Category shares are self-selected. "Physician and practice side" includes concierge physicians or practices, exploring physicians, practice team members and physician spouses.
- Geography: Georgia and Southeast shares are averaged across 2019 and 2022 to 2026 and are based on registrants with a U.S. state on file. 2019 states were derived from ZIP code prefixes for the subset of attendees with a ZIP code. "Southeast" includes AL, AR, FL, GA, KY, LA, MS, NC, SC, TN, VA and WV. The map shades each state by how many of five records (2019, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025) include it. Puerto Rico is represented but not drawn on the map.
- International: countries come from registration or attendee records where noted. Countries and regions marked as organizer-reported come from organizer records or recollection and were not audited. "6 continents" includes organizer-reported participation.
- Interest themes come from optional open-text answers, grouped by keyword matching (2022 to 2025) and manual review (2026). Theme grouping involves judgment.
- "200+ expert speakers" is an organizer count of speakers invited and hosted since 2017. The organizations listed were compiled from organizer records and from organization names found in registration records, and are shown for identification only. Their inclusion does not imply endorsement, sponsorship or affiliation.
- The Concierge Medicine Forum does not offer continuing medical education (CME) credit.
- Growth math: 308 people in 2026 divided by 93 in 2017 equals about 3.3x, or a 231% increase. The compound annual growth rate over those nine years is about 14.2%.
- Atlanta airport ranking: Airports Council International (ACI) World preliminary 2025 passenger traffic rankings, as reported by Travel Agent Central.
- Founding years for Concierge Medicine Today (2007) and the Concierge Medicine Forum (2017) are as reported by the organization. Percentages are rounded.
- Map outlines: U.S. Census Bureau boundaries via us-atlas, and Natural Earth via world-atlas.
