The Medical Society of London is one of the oldest surviving medical societies (being organisations of voluntary association, rather than regulation or training) in the United Kingdom. It was founded in 1773 by the Quaker physician and philanthropist Dr John Coakley Lettsome for physicians, surgeons and apothecaries who met to exchange medical news and confer about difficult cases. Lettsome himself served as president of the new society in 1775–1776, 1784–1785, 1809–1811 and 1813–1815. James Sims was president from 1786 to 1808 and during his long term of office some members of the society, led by Sir William Saunders, became so offended by his autocratic style that in 1805 they formed themselves into a new medical society, the Medical and Chirurgical Society of London, which later evolved

The Medical Society of London is one of the oldest surviving medical societies (being organisations of voluntary association, rather than regulation or training) in the United Kingdom. It was founded in 1773 by the Quaker physician and philanthropist Dr John Coakley Lettsome for physicians, surgeons and apothecaries who met to exchange medical news and confer about difficult cases. Lettsome himself served as president of the new society in 1775–1776, 1784–1785, 1809–1811 and 1813–1815. James Sims was president from 1786 to 1808 and during his long term of office some members of the society, led by Sir William Saunders, became so offended by his autocratic style that in 1805 they formed themselves into a new medical society, the Medical and Chirurgical Society of London, which later evolved into the Royal Society of Medicine. The Society's wide appeal, the possession of a valuable library (originally purchased from Sims) and freehold property (donated by Lettsome) has helped to ensure the society's success and longevity. Originally based in the City of London, it moved in 1873 to its present location in Lettsom House, Chandos Street, near Cavendish Square in the heart of London's medical community. This early 19th-century building was originally owned by the Earl of Gainsborough, and is now also home to several related societies who share the facilities. The library has since been purchased by the Wellcome Trust. The Lettsomian lecture is delivered annually by a fellow of the society. The Fothergill gold medal, named in honour of physician John Fothergill, Lettsome's patron, is awarded every three years in consultation with the Royal College of Physicians (to be awarded every five years from 2010). The present prize, founded in 1824, is funded by the will of Anthony Fothergill and prior to 1888 was awarded annually. The original award, sponsored by Lettsome, was introduced in 1787 and awarded until 1803.

Perhimpunan Medis London (bahasa Inggris: Medical Society of London) adalah salah satu organisasi medis tertua yang bertahan (menjadi organisasi asosiasi sukarela, bukan regulasi atau pelatihan) di Britania Raya. Organisasi ini didirikan pada tahun 1773 oleh seorang dokter dari kaum Quaker dan seorang filantropis Dr bagi para dokter, ahli bedah, dan apoteker yang bertemu untuk saling menukar berita medis dan mendiskusikan kasus-kasus sulit. Lettsome sendiri menjabat sebagai presiden organisasi baru tersebut pada 1775–1776, 1784–1785, 1809–1811 dan 1813–1815. adalah presiden dari tahun 1786 hingga 1808 dan selama masa jabatannya yang panjang, beberapa anggota organisasi, dipimpin oleh Sir William Saunders, menjadi begitu tersinggung dengan gaya otokratisnya sehingga pada tahun 1805 mereka membentuk organisasi medis baru, yaitu , yang kemudian berkembang menjadi . Daya tarik organisasi yang luas, kepemilikan perpustakaan yang berharga (awalnya dibeli dari Sims) dan properti yang menjadi hak milik (disumbangkan oleh Lettsome) membantu memastikan keberhasilan dan panjangnya usia organisasi ini. Perhimpunan Medis London awalnya berbasis di City of London, tetapi dipindahkan pada tahun 1873 ke lokasinya yang sekarang di Lettsom House, Chandos Street, dekat di jantung komunitas medis London. Organisasi ini menempati bangunan saat ini pada awal abad ke-19, yang awalnya dimiliki oleh Earl of Gainsborough, dan sekarang juga merupakan markas bagi beberapa organisasi terkait yang saling berbagi fasilitas. Perpustakaannya kemudian dibeli oleh Wellcome Trust. Kuliah Lettsomian disampaikan setiap tahun oleh sesama anggota organisasi. Selain itu, medali emas Fothergill (yang diberi nama untuk menghormati dokter , pelindung Lettsome) diberikan setiap tiga tahun setelah berkonsultasi dengan (yang kemudian diberikan setiap lima tahun sejak 2010). Penghargaan ini, yang dimulai pada tahun 1824, didanai oleh kehendak dan sebelum 1888 diberikan setiap tahun. Penghargaan aslinya, yang disponsori oleh Lettsome, diperkenalkan pada 1787 dan diberikan hingga 1803.
