Los Angeles healthcare does not move forward because of one organization, one hospital, or one leader.

It moves forward when physicians, healthcare executives, policymakers, innovators, philanthropists, and community leaders come together around the challenges that matter most.

That is what makes the Los Angeles Healthcare Awards different.

On November 13, we will gather at the Beverly Wilshire to recognize individuals whose leadership is strengthening healthcare across Los Angeles County, while bringing together the people helping shape what comes next.

It is an evening to celebrate impact, strengthen relationships, and connect with leaders from across the healthcare community.

Join us for the 13th Annual Los Angeles Healthcare Awards.
November 13, 2026
6:00–9:30 PM
Beverly Wilshire, Beverly Hills

Reserve your seat and be part of the conversation shaping the future of healthcare in Los Angeles.
