The Irish Medical Organisation (Irish: Ceardchumann Dhochtúirí na hÉireann ) is a Professional association for Doctors in Ireland which also acts as a Trade Union representing doctors in negotiations with the Irish government.
The IMO was formed in January 1984 through the amalgamation of the Irish Medical Association and the Irish Medical Union. It is the sole negotiating body on behalf of all doctors in Ireland, recognised for negotiating purposes under the Trade Union Act 1941.
