For Michael Timson, health was a team effort. After a diabetes diagnosis in 2014, Scripps Clinic put together a coordinated care dream team with not one, not two, but five skilled medical professionals. With their help, Timson was able to change the course of his disease. To say thanks, he made a donation to Scripps in honor of National Doctors’ Day in his caregivers’ names.

Two-time cancer survivor Steve Young came up with a different way to express how grateful he was to his Scripps care team. He and his wife made a five-year commitment to Scripps MD Anderson Cancer Center. Read more about how they gave back here.
