About Us
From the Chair

Growth happens when forces pull together. At Hoag, I have come across many people whom I would consider great forces: the leaders who shape its advancements, the physicians whose expertise heals, the nurses who selflessly care and the support team who keep it all running every day.

As we look to the future of Hoag, I’m inspired by the accomplishments of everyone working together. With the successful completion of the Hoag Promise Campaign, which raised over $760 million from tens of thousands of supporters, we are excited to set our sights on the next endeavors in pursuit of expanding Hoag’s reach and wellness capabilities.

Our mission to bring innovative, leading-edge clinical methods to people has resulted in a network of care that covers the landscape of Orange County. As we grow, so does the depth of Hoag’s programs and resources to advance health care for families in more communities.

In the face of recent challenges, the availability of comprehensive health care resources has become more crucial than ever. Hoag continues to look to the future, creating paths that best help our communities become stronger and flourish.

I take pride in serving on the Hoag Hospital Foundation Board alongside so many servant volunteer leaders. I’m fueled by their passion and positivity and inspired by our work in support of Hoag and our community. I’m excited to chart our course for new innovations and future success, knowing we have a dedicated community supporting us along the way.

Sincerely,

Richard H. Taketa

Chair, Hoag Hospital Foundation Board
