It is never too late

“Gratitude. This is what I feel and compels me to give back to the Keck School of Medicine of USC. As an alumnus from the graduating class of 1978, I have had the privilege and opportunity to reflect on what my experience at Keck provided me. I am grateful for the medical foundation I established at Keck which allowed me to grow in my profession. During my busy years establishing myself in my career I did not take the time to really appreciate what Keck did for me. It is never too late. I am honored and blessed to be able to give back and for that reason, I contribute.”

Forever Grateful

“We support Dr. Chmait and the wonderful work he and his team do because they were tremendous during a very difficult time and we are forever grateful for their care, compassion, and dedication to patient lives and outcomes. We were very fortunate to have found Dr. Chmait, and our annual gifts are our small way of supporting the team and future patients.”
