The Starting Point
Building the Future of Medicine
I
f you have driven past Cedars-Sinai recently, you know that construction is
underway on the Advanced Health Sciences Pavilion (AHSP). It would be
difficult to overstate the sense of excitement that pervades the Medical
Center as the new 11-story, 450,000-square-foot structure rises above San Vicente
Boulevard. Our community is on the threshold of a new era in healthcare.
The AHSP will reshape the patient experience at Cedars-Sinai. The Pavilion
will continue our tradition of highest quality outpatient care—housing our
renowned centers in cardiology and neurosciences and a wide spectrum of
services and procedure suites—while introducing a very new level of
convenience. In Los Angeles, even short distances can mean long commutes, and
parking is at a premium: The AHSP will provide six levels of parking and a
pedestrian bridge connecting the building to the Medical Center towers.
“Our community is on the threshold
of a new era in healthcare.”
The AHSP will help change the way discoveries become medicine. In
traditional medical settings, doctors and researchers often work in separate
locations. This tends to hinder the easy exchange of insights and information, and
frequently delays the translation of laboratory discoveries into new treatments
and therapies. Instead the AHSP will bring physicians and researchers—across
medical and scientific disciplines—under one roof. The building’s design features
common areas where medical professionals will naturally interact. Their
synergistic partnerships will drive innovations that make a real difference for
patients and their families.
Add the building’s emphasis on environmental and energy-saving design
and you will begin to understand why the AHSP is generating so much buzz at
Cedars-Sinai and beyond. Of course, we are as filled with gratitude as we are
with anticipation—our institution is profoundly fortunate to be launching such
an ambitious project at a time when so many hospitals nationwide are
struggling.
We look forward to bringing you updates about AHSP’s progress. In the
meantime, we encourage you to reach out to learn more, and to join us as we
build the future of medicine.

Open Your Heart to Health
Go Red for Women
Each year on February 4, healthcare
professionals at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute
wear red in recognition of National Go Red For
Women Day. The annual event aims to increase
public awareness of gender differences in heart
disease and to foster support for more research
into treatments. Of course, every day at the Heart
Institute is dedicated to raising awareness and
combating heart disease, which remains the No. 1
killer of both women and men in the U.S.
I
n her mid-20s, lean, and a professional fitness trainer with no family
history of heart disease, Danielle Burgener seemed at little risk from
a heart attack. Then one night she felt “incredible pain” in her chest,
jaw, and back.
She and her husband, Todd, rushed to a hospital near their San
Gabriel Valley home. The emergency room doctors struggled to
determine the cause of her pain. One thought it might simply be an
anxiety attack. It turned out to be a heart attack due to a rare
coronary aneurysm.
Fortunately, Danielle’s cardiologist referred her to the Women’s
Heart Center at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, where specialists
have extensive expertise in even the most complicated
cardiovascular issues. Now her condition is being successfully
managed, thanks to a course of treatment set up by Women’s
Heart Center Director C. Noel Bairey Merz, MD.
The origins of Danielle’s weakened artery wall remain
something of a mystery, however. One factor may have been
her pregnancy. She hadn’t felt in tip-top shape since giving
birth to her son, Jackson.
After being diagnosed in her 20s with a heart attack due to a rare coronary aneurysm, fitness trainer
Danielle Burgener now helps other women be mindful of their own heart health.

Remembering Irving Feintech
I
Heart problems can happen at any age, notes Margo B. Minissian,
cardiology nurse practitioner at the Women’s Heart Center. “The lesson is, if
you’re having symptoms, listen to your body,” she says, calling it “frightening
how often people don’t listen to the symptoms that women report.”
Danielle now shares her experience with others, helping make sure
those she works with pay attention to their own heart health.
“I’ve gotten pretty good at doing what I need to do to avoid another
heart attack,” she says. This includes keeping a portable heart-rate monitor
with her and changing her workout routine to stay within recommended
target zones. “I’ve learned to slow down and appreciate the small moments,”
adds Danielle, “like watching my son laugh or taking a breath of fresh air.”
Marketing Heart Health
Gelson’s Markets partnered with the Women’s Heart Center at the Cedars-Sinai
Heart Institute for the Super Heart Smart campaign, raising awareness of heart
health and gender-specific differences in women. For the month of February,
shoppers at Gelson’s Southern California locations found tags identifying hearthealthy foods, signs at the deli counter with heart-health information, and heart
facts printed on grocery bags. Gelson’s donated 100 percent of the purchase
price of each Super Heart Smart reusable bag to the Women’s Heart Center.
Shoppers could even add their own donations while completing their purchases.
rving Feintech, former chairman of the CedarsSinai Board of Directors, passed away at age 92 on
February 5, 2011. His contributions to the Medical
Center were many and wide-ranging. He was at the
forefront of the merger between Cedars of Lebanon
and Mount Sinai Hospital that created today’s
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. With Robert Silverstein,
he co-chaired the landmark Campaign for the 21st
Century to expand hospital facilities. And from 1993
to 1995, he chaired the Board of Directors.
Lawrence B. Platt, chair of the Cedars-Sinai Board
of Directors, noted that Irving Feintech “leaves us
with a rich legacy of tireless devotion to our Medical
Center. His life was a shining example of one
person—through painstaking and dynamic action—
enriching the lives of many, many people.”
“Irving’s devotion to Cedars-Sinai knew no
bounds,” said Thomas M. Priselac, president and CEO.
“He gave more than 45 years of distinguished service
and leadership to the hospital that meant so much to
him. His passion and energy were legendary. We will
sorely miss his friendship and dedication.”
One of the developers of Porter Ranch, Feintech
served on the boards of directors of the Music Center
and the Cedars-Sinai Psychological Trauma Center,
and on the honorary board of the Prostate Cancer
Foundation. He also was a member of the West Coast
Chairmen’s Council of the American Friends of the
Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. A lawyer by training he,
together with his brother Norman Feintech, owned
Liberty Building Company.
He is survived by his daughters Lisa Feintech and
Wendy Feintech, and sister-in-law Evelyn Feintech.

Bicycles Built for
W
Cedars-Sinai employees had no idea the bikes
they were assembling were for anything other
than a team-building exercise.
The kids from Upward Bound were
as surprised as the Cedars-Sinai
staff to learn the bikes had been
made for them.
4
Joy
hen some 50 Cedars-Sinai staff
members entered Thalians
Auditorium one morning,
they only knew they would be taking part in a team-building exercise. The
20 boxes of bicycle parts came as a surprise—but not as big a surprise as
the joyful smiles that would ultimately result from the day’s labor.
Mitch Martens, the senior administrative services associate in the Quality/
Performance Improvement and Medical Staff Services department who
organized the exercise, tasked employees with assembling the bikes. The
staffers were divided into teams, with each team responsible for building five
or six bicycles.
Within 90 minutes, 20 gleaming bicycles were ready for a quality inspection
by staff from Echo Park Cycles, which partnered with
Cedars-Sinai on the project. Everything checked out,
and the bikes were judged safe for riding.
But who would ride them? That answer came
with the arrival of a bus filled with families from
Upward Bound House Family Shelter in Culver
City. Neither the Cedars-Sinai bike-builders nor
the children on the bus knew what was in store.
“When the employees saw the kids walk into
the room wide-eyed and excited, they got it,”
recalls Martens, who coordinated the surprise
with Michele Rigsby Pauley, RN, MSN,
CPNP, the program director for
Cedars-Sinai’s COACH for
Kids & Their Families®
program.
Upward Bound is one of numerous community sites to which
COACH sends mobile medical units to provide health services and
information to those with limited access to healthcare. Since 1994, the
program has provided expert clinical care and social services at no
charge throughout Los Angeles County for low-income and medically
underserved families.
“I don’t know what was more exciting,” says Rigsby Pauley, “to see
how happy this gift made the kids and their parents, or to see how
much it meant to the employees when they realized they’d been putting
together the bikes for kids in need.”
She adds that the bicycles, which came with helmets, gave the
families a big emotional boost.
In addition to community service and team building, Martens also
wanted the exercise to demonstrate to employees who don’t necessarily
interact with patients that “everything we do at Cedars-Sinai directly or
indirectly affects the patient.”
Perhaps that day is best summed up by the title of a course Martens
teaches at Cedars-Sinai: “It’s All About Caring.”
“I wanted to pay
back the hospital and
Dr. Liu for exceptional
results from a
complicated surgery,
and for the respect and
care with which I was
treated by everyone.
I didn’t feel like a
patient. I felt like
someone who needed
help, and everyone
at Cedars-Sinai was
there to help me.”

egendary singer Smokey Robinson made a surprise appearance
at the ninth annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Celebration at
Cedars-Sinai, joining featured speaker Berry Gordy, founder of
Motown Records.
This year’s event attracted the largest audience to date. The crowd
overflowed from Harvey Morse Auditorium into the foyer and a nearby
boardroom, where video monitors screened the program.
Neurosurgery Professor and Department Chairman Keith Black, MD,
co-chair of the event with Emergency Medicine Department Co-chair Joel
Geiderman, MD, led a roundtable discussion with Gordy and Robinson. “My
whole life has changed because of the thinking of Dr. King,” said Gordy, who
produced three albums of King’s speeches.
Singer Niki Haris, the Agape Love Ensemble, and the Agape House
Band took the stage for the event’s finale. They performed a trio of gospel
songs, and thanked Gordy and Robinson for paving the way for AfricanAmerican musicians.
Changing of the Guard
L
awrence B. Platt became the 13th chair of the Cedars-Sinai
Board of Directors on December 14, 2010, taking the helm from
Mark S. Siegel. Platt chaired the Discovering for Life fund-raising
campaign, during which donors contributed a record $357 million for
the Medical Center’s research endowment. He has been a Board member
since 1999 and served as vice chair during Siegel’s tenure.
Walter Zifkin was named vice chair and Vera Guerin retains the
position of Board secretary. Dr. Robert Ross, president and chief executive
officer of The California Endowment, was installed as a Board member.
“Larry has a deep commitment to the compassionate mission of
medicine, and he leads with enviable vision and energy,” says CedarsSinai President and CEO Thomas M. Priselac.
Platt will serve as chairman during construction of the Advanced
Health Sciences Pavilion, a 450,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility
that will integrate clinical care and scientific research, allowing physicians
to bring scientific breakthroughs directly to patients with a “bench-tobedside” treatment approach. The facility broke ground in October 2010.
“Our strength lies in remembering that everything we do is ultimately
for our patients,” Platt said during his inaugural remarks at the Board of
Directors’ annual meeting in December 2010. “It is their stories that
define who we are. It is their triumphs that matter most.” He expressed
confidence that the Board of Directors will provide strong leadership
during this time of regulatory uncertainty for healthcare institutions and
help Cedars-Sinai thrive financially while maintaining superb patient care.
Platt has held
leadership roles in
several Los Angeles
organizations, including
the Fraternity of Friends,
the Young Presidents’
Organization, the
World Presidents’
Organization, and the
American Jewish
Congress. He is president
and CEO of The Platt
Collections.
Platt was born at
Cedars of Lebanon
hospital and received
his BA and JD degrees
from the University of
Southern California.
First Lady of Cedars-Sinai
W
ith the passing of Barbara Factor
Bentley at the age of 80, Cedars-Sinai
lost a true pioneer. She was the first
woman to sit on the Cedars-Sinai Board of
Directors executive committee, the first to serve as
its vice chair, and the first woman in the Medical
Center’s 100-year history to serve as chair.
“She believed that the health of our community
depended in great measure on Cedars-Sinai,”
said Thomas M. Priselac, Cedars-Sinai president
and CEO. “She gave her time, her energy, and her
understanding of our community to keeping
Cedars-Sinai strong.”
Bentley brought the same dedication,
creativity, and skill to Cedars-Sinai and other
philanthropic endeavors that she brought to Max
Factor & Co., where she served as director of
international marketing. The famous makeup
manufacturer was founded by her grandfather,
Max Factor, Sr. Bentley also served as a trustee of
the Max Factor Family Foundation.
In 2000, she underwent a kidney transplant,
with her husband as donor. They subsequently
established the Joseph and Barbara Factor Bentley
Fellowship in Renal Transplantation at Cedars-Sinai.
Bentley is survived by her husband, Joseph V.
Bentley, daughter Judithe Salter, son Richard
Raimist, grandchildren Justin, Asher, and Jennifer

CATALYST WINTER 2011
“Kids who are hospitalized are so
overwhelmed in a big and unfamiliar
place, and the bears bring them
back to what they know: play time.”
JOANNE ORDONO
Five-year-old Anthony, who is recovering from a
kidney transplant, is busy putting a bandage on his
bear. He explains to Sandie that his bear is also going
to need “a new furry kidney,” and goes into the details
of what the recovery process will be like for his toy.
“Kids who are hospitalized are so overwhelmed in a
big and unfamiliar place, and the bears bring them
back to what they know: play time,” explains Joanne.
“They distract the kids, comfort them, and are used as
educational tools to prepare them for any procedures
or diagnoses the children might be dealing with.”
In a technology driven world, it was important to
Ed that he and Shari provide a simple childhood
staple, especially in the hospital environment. “There’s
only so much TV kids can watch,” he says. “The bears
really engage the imagination in children. By the end
of their stay, their bear has a name, and the nurses
and doctors know each bear as an extension of their
patient. How great is that?”
J
oanne and Sandie agree that the plush toy is also
an excellent tool for promoting socialization. The
certified child life specialists host playroom activities
dedicated to self-expression, where children customdesign the bears’ scrubs with fabric paints, markers,
and stickers.
The children visibly relax when they enter the safe
haven of the playroom and get to dive into a pile of
art supplies at the center of the table—even
adolescent patients like 19-year-old Alejandro, who
doesn’t hesitate to pick up the glitter paint and
personalize his bear to break up the monotony of
waiting for test results. He inks “I love you” on a pink
bear for his girlfriend, his way of saying thank you for
visiting and texting him while he’s been undergoing
treatment for leukemia.
Ed estimates that through his family foundation and
the program at Cedars-Sinai, close to one million bears
have been distributed. “I am just thrilled that I can do
something to help the medical staff and put a smile on
a patient’s face.”

A Family Affair
T
om Gordon is sitting in his office’s
plush leather sofa with Jon
Kobashigawa, MD. Artfully framed
black and white photographs of his wife and
two daughters decorate the wall behind them.
Suddenly, Gordon gets up and pulls two
employees into the room. He is now
standing in the middle of his office, clearly
energized, his hands sweeping through the
air as he is about to make a point.
“I don’t want to make this sound like it’s
rehearsed,” he tells his colleagues, “but
what’s the most important thing about the
people I hire?”
They relax. Everyone on his staff knows
this one. “Their hearts,” they say in unison.
Gordon nods. “What are we?”
“A family.” They’re smiling broadly.
So is Dr. Kobashigawa. In early 2010,
he and his renowned cardiology group, the
California Heart Center, left UCLA to join
Tom Gordon’s family at Cedars-Sinai.
Gordon is Cedars-Sinai Health System’s
senior vice president overseeing the Medical
Delivery Network and serves as chief
executive officer of the Medical Care
Foundation, a group of more than 115
physicians and allied health providers who
have been delivering primary and multispecialty care to thousands of patients for
more than 25 years.
To this exceptional group, Dr.
Kobashigawa brought a vibrant cardiology
practice, thereby creating the nation’s
largest heart transplant program. During
2010, the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute
completed 76 adult heart transplants, more
than any other hospital in the nation.
Catalyst: Tell us about the first time you met each other.
Dr. Jon I originally met with Drs. Shlomo Melmed [senior vice president
Kobashigawa: for Academic Affairs and dean of the Medical Faculty] and Eduardo
Marbán [director of the Heart Institute]. When they called me, I
had no intention of coming to Cedars-Sinai. The first call is always
one of curiosity, so I met with them. They told me about their vision,
and it was incredible.
Then I met Tom Gordon. Tom is a towering figure, so when he
comes into the room, it’s scary in a way, but at the same time, he’s
like a teddy bear. He just hugged me and said, “I hope to earn your
trust.” And the first thing everybody thinks is: “Is he for real? Is he
really that nice?” He is. He’s genuine. He means what he says.
Tom For me it was a chance to explain to Jon and his team that I knew
Gordon: they had a wonderful situation at UCLA, but that UCLA is a
different model. Our model is intensely physician-friendly.
Catalyst: Did you have the same vision for how things would develop if the California Heart
Center joined Cedars-Sinai?
JK: My team knew that we were going to be supported at CedarsSinai, and that we would be able to pursue our mission: to provide
the best care possible to our patients and have the best outcomes.
We also knew that education and research are paramount here.
TG: Cedars-Sinai was committed to expanding the Heart Institute. And
it was clear to me that expanding the Institute with extraordinary
researchers, clinicians, and human beings like Jon and his group
would be an incredible opportunity.

“I learned a long time ago that if you hire
people with heart, you can do anything.”
TOM GORDON
Catalyst: Cedars-Sinai is now the No. 1 adult heart transplant center
in the United States. How did that come about?
JK: When we moved over to Cedars-Sinai, we
were flabbergasted to hear our nurses say,
“We’re coming with you.” And our assistants
also said: “We’re coming with you. We don’t
want to break up the group.”
So our chemistry remained intact, and that
extended to our patients as well. Ninety percent
of our patients came with us.
And I have to give credit to the heart
surgeons, Dr. Alfredo Trento and Dr. Robert
Kass, for the great work they do. We didn’t
miss a heartbeat in terms of outcomes.
Catalyst: In addition to transplant patients, you have a dynamic
advanced heart disease program…
JK: Advanced heart disease is an area in which
we are making meaningful progress. Our
Cardiac Mechanical Assist Device Program is
thriving. We’ll be the first on the West Coast
to launch the totally artificial heart. Also, we’ve
developed our advanced heart failure
program—we have a whole wing dedicated
to the treatment of heart failure and
transplant patients.
Catalyst: Looking back, how did you first become interested
in medicine?
JK: For me, it was because of my family. Both
my parents were educators. My mother was a
home economics teacher in adult education
and my father was an English teacher, both
in the Los Angeles Unified School District.
My uncle was a physician. And he was very
engaged in community work. In fact, they
called him “the mayor of Pearl City, Hawaii,”
where he lived and worked.
Catalyst: Tom, you ran a variety of businesses before you came to
Cedars-Sinai, right?
TG: Yes. When I finished college, my brother
advised me to go into management. His
observation was that wherever he had been,
there was a shortage of good managers. So I was
very lucky. My first job out of college was with an
industrial uniform manufacturer, where I met my
mentor, who took care of me, who guided me,
who told me when I was going in the wrong
direction, and changed my life. One of the most
important things he taught me was not to be
afraid to make a decision. Wherever I went after
that, thanks to his guidance, I wasn’t afraid.

The Philanthropic Spark
Catalyst: How do you view your role as a manager here at
Cedars-Sinai?
TG: I try to offer hopes and dreams to physicians.
These amazing men and women who are at the
top of their field are also expected to be quasibusinesspeople. That’s not what they signed up
for. That’s not what they’re interested in. They
want to take care of patients.
The goal of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Care
Foundation is to allow physicians to be
physicians. We will do everything else that
needs to be done for them. But the main
thing that’s different about our Foundation is
the culture. Most foundation models talk
about being physician management
practices. I want everyone who works here
to feel that we are a physician support team.
JK: It’s true. Tom runs it as a partnership. Tom,
you really and truly have earned not only my
trust but also the trust of my entire group.
TG: I learned a long time ago that if you hire
people with heart, you can do anything.
These guys, they not only give heart, they
are heart. That’s what’s so beautiful.

Jon Kobashigawa, MD, has had his share of elite titles. Tom Gordon will hijack
a conversation to remind you that his friend is a superstar of the International
Society of Heart and Lung Transplantation. (As past president and past program chair,
Dr. Kobashigawa has held two of the society’s most prestigious positions.)
But the cardiologist’s most treasured title might be the one with Tom Gordon’s
name attached: the DSL/Thomas D. Gordon Chair in Heart Transplantation Medicine.
The endowed chair is the manifestation of an enduring personal friendship.
Land developer Donald S. Levin (the chair’s “DSL”) stumbled into friendship
with Gordon while working on a Cedars-Sinai building lease. Gordon “found him
to be an interesting, thoughtful man” and soon the two were trading personal
histories and spending time with each other’s families.
When Levin needed knee surgery, Gordon was intent on caring for him. “I went to
visit him every day in the hospital. I think it meant a lot to both of us,” Gordon says.
At the end of a complicated medical journey, Levin insisted on thanking his friend.
Gordon suggested a small donation to the Medical Center—a token. “Mr. Levin
went across the street, spoke to the hospital, and said he wanted to endow a chair
in my name,” recalls Gordon. “That’s a commitment of $2 million. I actually
thought that they’d misunderstood him.”
Gordon was overwhelmed by the gesture, but felt the endowed chair should
go to a doctor doing lifesaving work. Enter Jon Kobashigawa, MD, a newcomer to
Cedars-Sinai, but already a luminary in cardiac care.
“This was the perfect synergy, and it was an honor for Mr. Levin and me to
have Jon as our inaugural chair,” Gordon says.
He is visibly moved when talking about Levin’s unexpected generosity. “This is
family and that meant the world to me,” he says. “It really did.”
The Young
and the Selfless
By Louise Cobb
R
yan Gurman was distracted at his bar mitzvah.
Though surrounded by 150 guests, he couldn’t
help but think about the one person who wasn’t
there: his grandfather. A few hours earlier, Abe Gurman
had been rushed to Cedars-Sinai after suffering a heart
attack. He eventually made a full recovery. But at the
time, Ryan’s thoughts were with his grandfather in his
hospital room. His thoughts were also with the many
hospitalized children who weren’t as lucky as he was.
“I thought, ‘I have my whole life ahead of me—
I wish all those kids in the hospital were as lucky,’”
says Ryan, a hard-charging, basketball-loving, 14-yearold who seems mature beyond his years. “I’ve always
wanted to make a difference; it’s part of who I am.”
With that philosophy in mind, Ryan decided to
donate a portion of his bar mitzvah money to CedarsSinai and start a charitable fund to help raise money
for pediatric patients: thechildrensfoundation.org. He
requested that his gift go toward purchasing a
neonatal resuscitation device. He also donated
playdough and toys.
“I wanted to give the hospital what it needed, and also
put a smile on kids’ faces. Kids love toys! I know I used to!”
Ryan’s gift reflects his personality: He’s practical,
ambitious, and has big goals, yet he’s still a kid at
heart. He’s a middle school student trying to get
straight A’s so he can go to Stanford someday—all the
while juggling schoolwork, playing on three basketball
teams, and spending time with friends.
“I’m just a regular kid. I want to see positive changes
happen in the community and in the world,” he explains.
“That’s what I want to accomplish.”
And accomplish he did: Ryan launched
thechildrensfoundation.org entirely on his own—
although he clearly inherited his entrepreneurial spirit
from his parents, Michelle and Arnon. His father has
enjoyed great success in real estate, while his mother
owns an invitation-design business. Ryan continues to
expand thechildrensfoundation.org through social
networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter, while
also channeling donations into pediatric care and

makes me want to try harder. I want to know that I’ve
done everything I can to make a difference. It doesn’t
matter how old you are—anybody can put their mind
to turning an idea into a reality.”
Developing the charitable fund has had another
impact on Ryan: It has shifted his career goals. He used
to want to be a doctor, but now business is what he
loves. He hopes to combine the two someday. But most
of all, he plans to continue his philanthropic efforts.
“Starting thechildrensfoundation.org opened my
eyes to why people give. I used to think, ‘It’s their
money, why would they just give it away?’ Now I realize
it’s one of the most amazing things one can do.”

Spotlight on Success
The most successful fundraising initiative in
Cedars-Sinai history, the Discovering for Life
campaign raised $357 million for the Medical
Center. Two events provided a fitting conclusion
to such a remarkable achievement.
Former Paramount Pictures and MGM CEO
Frank Mancuso and his wife, Fay, hosted an
intimate gathering for top campaign contributors
at their beautiful Italianate home, where guests
dined poolside while trumpeter Arturo Sandoval
and his band performed a set of jazz standards.
“Vision” was the theme for the official closing
celebration—held on the rooftop of the London
Hotel in West Hollywood three weeks later. Twin
beams of light shone from Cedars-Sinai throughout
the evening, while telescopes placed on the
London Hotel roof enabled guests to admire the
institution they generously supported. More than
250 celebrants attended, and many guests danced
well into the night, as “The Tonight Show with
Jay Leno” musical director Rickey Minor and his
band performed.

continues to do what some
once thought impossible. In
a groundbreaking Phase I
clinical trial, investigators
are asking whether a
patient's own cardiac stem
cells can be used to repair
and regrow healthy muscle
in a heart injured by a heart
attack. Results are expected
this year.

Community Pulse
By Louise Cobb
Kim Coleman
Transplanted: November 16, 2008
On the transplant
list for: Two years
Hobbies: Dancing, writing poetry,
practicing Buddhism,
thrift-store shopping
Patient advice: You can’t give up hope;
you have to believe you’re
going to make it.
Transplant We can’t control what
mantra: happens to us, only how we
react to it. My spirituality gave
me an added layer of strength
and showed me this process was
part of my journey.
Heart transplant We’ve all experienced the
family: universal fear of the unknown
that puts our mortality in
our face.
Motivation to be I used to write checks to
an ambassador: charity, but now I know my
mission is to go out and help
people hands-on.
Take away: I am overwhelmed with
gratitude to be alive. I feel
like I’m paying it forward. The
feedback I get from patients
and families is phenomenal.

Having already
survived and thrived
following their
own procedures,
Cedars-Sinai
heart transplant
ambassadors share
hope and a special
bond with patients
on the waiting list.
K
im Coleman’s warm smile falls on the pale
woman slumped over in the hospital bed in
front of her. The woman is fragile and frustrated:
She’s been on the heart transplant waiting list for months.
Her energy is so low she’s given up on eating. Now, to
her husband’s despair, she’s refusing to take her
medication. Kim is calm, almost Zen-like. “I used to be
you,” she tells the woman. “I know you’re scared. I was,
too. But you have to believe you’re going to make it. You
can’t expect someone to sprinkle fairy dust on you and
fix you.” She shakes her head knowingly. “You have to
fight for yourself, and we’re all here to support you. Tell
yourself: ‘not now and not today.’”
The woman perks up a little.
Kim speaks from experience. She has a scar on her
chest to prove it, and she hasn’t forgotten what the
journey was like. Just like the nine other volunteer heart
transplant ambassadors at Cedars-Sinai, Kim, now healthy
and glowing, knows what it’s like to be intubated; she
can tell you how you’ll feel after your transplant, and she
knows just how hard you have to push yourself in
recovery. Most of all, she knows how difficult it can be to
remain hopeful when your heart is failing.
Bill Sears prepares Mary Perrigo for what post-transplant life will be like when
she returns home, one month after her surgery.

Marty Bender
Transplanted: December 14, 2009
On the transplant
list for: 13 months
Hobbies: Going to the dog park,
golfing, watching my
grandchildren play sports
Patient advice: Go with the flow; the
staff is here to help you.
Transplant Be positive. Those who
mantra: are do much better.
It’s all about how you
approach it.
Heart transplant We’ve all been through
family: the same experience. It’s
a brotherhood of sorts.
Motivation to be I wanted to help out the
an ambassador: staff and make a difference
in patients’ lives.
Take away: It’s the most rewarding
thing to meet a patient
who is scared to death
of what they’re facing
and go through the whole
process with them.

CATALYST SUMMER 2011
“We have a very special connection to the heart
because it’s the center of
love and emotions—and
I think heart transplant
patients feel that connection
very strongly.” —DR. JON KOBASHIGAWA
J
on Kobashigawa, MD, knows that men and women
who have received a heart transplant often share a
very special bond with patients waiting for one.
“They have a unique gift because they know what
the patients are actually going through,” he says. Dr.
Kobashigawa, the director of the Heart Transplant
Program at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, started the
Heart Transplant Ambassadors Program at UCLA and
brought it with him to Cedars-Sinai in 2010.
The ambassadors can relate to what it’s like to yearn
for a real shower instead of a sponge bath; to the toll a
transplant can take on a patient’s family life; and to the
importance of having a good pair of headphones to tune
out the beeping and hustle of a busy hospital floor. Dr.
Kobashigawa quickly noticed the bonds the ambassadors
were forging with patients, and the positive impact this
had on their overall outlook and recovery.
“When patients see how great the ambassadors look,
it gives them real hope that they can get back to that
quality of life,” Dr. Kobashigawa explains. “People
perceive the heart as the core of the person,” he adds.
“We have a very special connection to the heart because
it’s the center of love and emotions—and I think heart
transplant patients feel that connection very strongly.”
Dr. Kobashigawa’s first heart transplant ambassador
was Bill Sears, a naturally positive and soft-spoken man
who got his new heart more than 10 years ago. Just six
months after his transplant, Bill began mentoring other
patients through the process. “Dr. Kobashigawa
understood that we were the bridge between the
patients and the doctors,” he recalls. Bill is now the
coordinator and the backbone of the program. He is
over 70 but he often jokes with patients that his 30th
birthday is coming up—the real age of his new heart.

B
ill is sitting with Mary Perrigo in her hospital room. With fiery
red hair, the grandmother of 15 is simply glowing just one
month after her transplant. “Bill made me believe that I could
go out and volunteer, square dance, walk, and actually have the energy
to go and visit people.”
It wasn’t easy for Mary to get to that positive place, and Barbara Leanse,
director of the Volunteer Services Department, credits the ambassadors. “They
are just such happy, giving people, and they are healing the hearts of others
with the love in their own hearts. They come with dedication because they
know anyone waiting for a heart transplant is at a dark moment in their life.”
Kim Coleman can especially relate to how dark it can be. After she spent
10 years with a cardiac condition and a defibrillator that saved her life 13
times, her doctor recommended she be placed on the transplant list.
While waiting for a heart, she lost everything she owned—her jewelry,
her prized Jaguar, and her home. She relied on fund-raisers and
monetary donations from her book club just to pay for utilities and put
gas in the car to get to doctors’ appointments.
She never gave up hope, but faced with the gravity of her situation,
Kim prepared for the worst. After a stay in the ICU, she was in a
wheelchair, so sick that she wrote goodbye letters to her four grown
sons and planned her entire memorial service—down to what songs
should be played. Then she got word: They had a heart for her. “I had to
believe I was going to make it. You just have to believe.”
That’s the main message Kim spreads to all of the patients she visits
on a weekly basis. “Some want to hear hard facts, some just want you
to hold their hand, and others need you to be their cheerleader and
encourage them,” she says.
T
he ambassadors’ sense of how to best support a patient is
something that is particularly helpful to Dr. Kobashigawa and
his team. “They know when patients want to talk and when they
don’t,” he explains. The ambassadors also can report things that may not
be apparent to the medical staff—such as the patient’s commitment and
attitude toward the strict recovery regimen they must follow after being
released from the Medical Center.
When Kim goes back a week later to check on the patient who hadn’t
been eating or taking her medication—she finds her out of bed and
completely energized. According to the woman’s husband, every day
since Kim’s visit, his wife has been getting out of bed and affirming
Kim’s mantra, “I have got to fight for myself.”
“That’s what keeps me coming back,” Kim says. “I feel like I’m paying
it forward. The feedback I get from patients and families is
phenomenal—I wouldn’t trade it for all the money in the world.”
For Bill, his patients are his family. He describes the connection the
ambassadors share with heart transplant patients as a “special fraternity
and sorority.”
To better explain, Bill extends his arm, exposing his wrist and says,
“Feel my pulse—that’s someone else’s heart keeping me alive.” He smiles.
“It’s hard to even comprehend.”

Terry Kane
Transplanted: March 30, 2010
On the transplant
list for: 18 months
Hobbies: Working out, reading, going
to the theater, traveling…
everything I did before
my transplant, but with
a vengeance!
Patient advice: Set short-term and long-term
goals, exercise, and maintain
a positive attitude. The bed
is your enemy.
Transplant Always be on the offensive;
mantra: maintain a positive attitude
because it’s your mind that’s
going to get you through it.
Heart transplant We are a group of people
family: who all have to look forward.
If we dwell on the sickness
we endured before, we never
heal.
Motivation to be When I was in the ICU, I saw
an ambassador: a lot of patients who just
weren’t getting it. They were
slumped over and defeated.
I felt like they needed
something that I could
provide.
Take away: When I talk to patients and
I see their spirits rise—
especially because I don’t
look sick—that’s an amazing
feeling.

For more than a century, people from
all around the world have turned to
Cedars-Sinai for world-class medical
treatment and research.
You can help to ensure that this legacy
will be available for generations to come
by making a planned gift to Cedars-Sinai.
Your gift provides tax benefits for you
and/or your estate, and it helps Cedars-Sinai
continue to provide the finest quality care, and
to conduct research that is vital to our Southern
California community—and to the world.
To learn how you can create your own legacy
at Cedars-Sinai, please contact Matthew Rabin, Esq.,
associate director of Gift Planning, at
(323) 866-8149 or [email protected],
or visit the planned giving portion of our
website at www.csmc.edu/giving.
