The Military Medical Academy (MMA; Bulgarian: Военномедицинска академия, ВМА, romanized: Voennomeditsinska akademiya, VMA) of Sofia is a large complex for medical treatment, as well as education, located in Sofia, Bulgaria.
The Academy has several branches and smaller clinics in other cities in the country.
It was established on 1 December 1891 as a military hospital and was transformed into a Higher Military Medical Institute (HMMI, Висш военномедицински институт, ВВМИ) in 1960.
The current structure dates from 1989, when the HMMI was unified with the main Government hospital in Sofia, the Navy hospital in Varna, the Military hospital in Plovdiv, the Aero-medical research institute in Sofia. Medical doctors and specialists from the MMA are employed in military formations.
