Grateful Patient Programs

We change how clinicians think about philanthropy — and the way they partner with you.

Engaging clinicians to be active partners in the philanthropic process is a significant challenge. Often clinicians get so entwined with caring for their patients that philanthropic opportunities become pushed to the back of their minds. We are here to help engage clinicians and creatively educate them on ways to recognize and utilize the power of philanthropy. With list of 550 clients and growing, Gobel understands what it takes to solve this challenge and build the industry’s most comprehensive Grateful Patient and Family Philanthropy Program.

With our proven methods, data modeling, and collaboration, you will harness the power of patient gratitude and engage clinicians to grow your active referrals, productivity and gifts.
