History
Established in 1930.
In the early 1930s, six physicians formally agreed to join their practices in a new medical corporation. The partnership agreement, just three pages long, offers little indication of how unusual their decision was at a time when many doctors viewed group practice as something close to communism. Nor does it foretell how the fledgling Palo Alto Medical Clinic, founded in a small college town several miles south of San Francisco, would become one of the largest and most well-respected physician groups in the United States.
