COVID-19 Precautions

HERS understands that the risk of Covid, influenza, RSV, and other illness is an ongoing concern for our patients. For this reason, we continue to take precautions including use of air purifiers and frequent sanitizing. We require patients and those who accompany them to wear masks. If you do not have a mask, we will provide one for you.

We also continue to mail patient orders, when appropriate. Call (510) 790-1911 for more information.

People with Purpose Gala

Our spring People with Purpose Gala Fundraiser took place on Saturday, April 8, 2023, at the beautiful Casa Bella Event Center in Sunol, California. This elegant and festive event raised over $150,000, which will allow HERS to provide post-surgical products for under-served patients for many months to come. We’re so grateful to all who joined us and/or donated in support of our event.

We’ll return to the beautifully re-designed Castlewood Country Club on Saturday, April 27, 2024, for our 15^th Annual People with Purpose Gala. Be sure to save the date and sign up for our newsletter so you’ll be “in the know” about our event details, including our 2024 HERS Award Honorees!
