Medical professionals are in the healing arts. They improve the quality of life on a daily basis for their patients. Within the Federation family, they make contributions to maintaining and strengthening the fabric of Jewish life locally and abroad.

The Health Professionals Division is comprised of medical professionals from many fields of practice including physicians, dentists, nurses, technicians, administrators and entrepreneurs. Every major hospital in West Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley are represented, as is every specialty and sub-specialty. Those individuals interested in leadership within the division may consider getting involved in the Division cabinet. Contact us to find out more.
