Motivation to support the Rheumatology Research Foundation is not a difficult decision when one spends a lifetime working with and caring for individuals with rheumatic diseases.
My ongoing donations and legacy donation are a thank you to the Rheumatology Research Foundation for helping me and my rheumatology program in the past and for keeping its mission focused on training and research to improve patient care.
Why do I donate to the Rheumatology Research Foundation, and why is it included in my will? I have a long-term perspective on our profession, including the funding for research and education.
The Rheumatology Research Foundation is about supporting and nurturing the future of rheumatology. What do I mean by this?
My father was a rheumatologist as well as my idol growing up. I thought if somebody loves medicine or anything as much as he did, I want a piece of that. Inspired by my father’s work, I have been a rheumatologist for over 35 years.
