The mission of The Arnold P. Gold Foundation is to make sure every medical student and doctor is educated and supported to provide the best, most compassionate care to you and your loved ones. Founder Dr. Arnold P. Gold is passionate about the importance of trusting relationships between doctors and their patients. Medical research shows that such relationships are good for your health. Today, 94 percent of American medical and osteopathy schools participate in at least one of the Gold Foundation’s many programs.

One program, called Gold DOC, offers patients an opportunity to recognize doctors who demonstrate exceptional sensitivity and compassion as well as clinical excellence. If this describes the care you or your family members receive, the Foundation provides you this meaningful way to thank your doctor.
