Why Give

Why I Give...

Feel inspired by your friends and colleagues. Why do they support UCLA Health?

Dr. Phuong-Thu Pham, Clinical Professor of Medicine at UCLA

“In our daily practice of medicine, we have witnessed so many situations where patients struggle on a daily basis to get what we all take for granted: a frail liver-kidney transplant patient who leaves clinic without being seen because she has no money for co-pay, a patient who cannot return for follow-up visits because he has no money for gas and parking fees...what would our parents have done? As God has given us the greatest blessings to be raised by the most dedicated and loving parents, we strive to share our parents’ giving spirits with others.”


Dr. Wally Ghurabi, Medical Director, Nethercutt Emergency Center, UCLA Medical Center, Santa Monica

“I support UCLA Health because of the profound impact it’s had on me and my family. UCLA helped my youngest daughter to see. UCLA helped cure my beloved wife of lung cancer. Another daughter was trained here and has gone on to become an Emergency Physician. For my part, ever since the Northridge earthquake I’ve had a personal calling to do Emergency Medicine. UCLA has allowed me the opportunity to continue doing what I love.”
