HODS ORTHODOX PHYSICIANS NETWORK

We are Orthodox Jewish physicians who are committed to modern medicine and to Jewish tradition who
also carry organ donor cards of the Halachic Organ Donor Society. We contribute annually $180 to the
HOD Society to help it continue its important life-saving work. We encourage all members of our profession to carry an organ donor card from the HOD Society and help it raise awareness about the importance of organ donation and show halachic support for organ donation.

To join the HODS Physician Network, simply register for a card here.
