On Saturday, April 1, 2017 the Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of California will celebrate its 52nd Founder’s Dinner at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills. Proceeds from this event will support medical research and patient services. This year’s gala honors the distinguished physicians on our Medical Advisory Board, who are committed to finding a cure for Myasthenia Gravis.
This year’s honorees are physicians who make a difference in an MG patient’s life every day. Without their care, myasthenia gravis patients would not be able to function, work, and enjoy life to the fullest. Many of you may have had a special doctor help you with a difficult issue with Myasthenia Gravis. We are privileged to have these illustrious doctors on our annual medical advisory board advising us and being involved in the foundation. They stand out as dedicated individuals who care a great deal about their patients.
