Philanthropic Projects

Our physicians are actively involved with philanthropic projects throughout the greater San Diego border region. From donating their expertise to help children with physical deformities in remote Mexican towns, to sponsoring fundraising events, humanitarian efforts are an integral component of the practice.

In addition, a portion of proceeds from every surgical procedure performed is donated to worthy causes that transform the lives of those in need.

A sample of charitable organizations the practice supports include:

- InterFace
- Mammogram for Tecate
- Challenged America
- Foundation for Women
- SES Tennis Center
- San Pasqual Academy
And many others

The practice is pleased to be a member of the Jet Methods Preferred Partner program. This program provides an exclusive invitation to select partners whose business philosophy and philanthropic outreach programs adhere to the same level of standards upheld by Jet Methods. They exemplify ethical business practices and are leaders within their respective industries.

They provide superior aircraft management and travel solutions and customize their services for customers while maintaining uncompromising standards of safety and service excellence. A portion of proceeds from every Jetaway trip is donated to charity.
