Dr. Ellenbogen’s Charitable Work
BEVERLY HILLS / LOS ANGELES Plastic Surgeon
Dr. Ellenbogen is very active in helping to raise funding and support for the Hospital de la Fe in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico and Project Happy Face. We wish to thank The Iacocca Foundation for their generous donation to the Hospital de la Fe!
Dr. Ellenbogen’s goal is to help children and also adults who have congenital or injury-induced deformities. The Hospital de la Fe is not currently equipped for these types of surgeries, so patients are referred to the Celaya Clinic of Dr. Velazquez and Dr. Berlanga where speech therapy, orthodontic therapy and dental therapy are available.
Dr. Ellenbogen is hoping to set up a cosmetic surgery clinic which can be used to help support reconstructive surgery for children and adults in clinics that provide those valuable services in the area. Dr. Ellenbogen and his wife will be living part-time in San Miguel so he can become even more involved with the hospital.
To find out how you can donate to this hospital and very wonderful cause, please contact our office at 310-276-3183. Alternatively, you may give through the San Miguel Educational Foundation (SMEF) specifying that the donation is for Project Happy Face.
