UCSD Foundation ALS Clinic
Donation protected
When Robert (“Bob”) Svet announced his ALS diagnosis in 2015 he wrote, “For 44 years, I have been blessed to work with an extraordinary group of people at Eastridge, whom I love and respect.” Supported by the care of Dr. John Ravits at UCSD’s ALS clinic, Bob was able to spend the time he had with those he loved most: his family and the team at Eastridge.
Bob dedicated his entire life to his business, his family, and his community. In 2010, Bob co-founded the Forget Me Not Foundation and in 2016 won San Diego Business Journal’s Most Admired CEO Award in the category of large, privately-held companies.
Dr. Ravits and the UCSD ALS clinical team provided wonderful care to Bob, a long-time San Diego resident and the chairman and founder of Eastridge Workforce Solutions. Dr. Ravits is located at UC San Diego Health, home to San Diego’s most comprehensive care program for people living with ALS (also commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease).
From diagnosis to treatment, the ALS clinical team at UCSD provides individualized care to those living with ALS and other motor neuron disorders. The team’s approach is holistic, caring for each patient across multiple medical disciplines such as speech therapy, neurology, and nutrition. Their collaborative style of care and fervent dedication to research has earned them recognition from the Muscular Dystrophy Association and the ALS Association.
The ALS clinical team at UCSD helped Bob to approach his diagnosis and treatment the same way he approached all of life’s obstacles: with optimism and unmatched effort. If you would like to honor Bob, please consider donating to the continued efforts of Dr. Ravits and his extraordinary team.
