He has been a contributor to the Discovery Channel and the Dr. Oz Show, and has made hundreds of appearances on national television networks and outlets such as CNN, CBS, National Geographic, Good Morning America and the Today Show.

Dr. Hébert has served as the Chairman of the Executive Advisory Council of the National Health Service Corps and was previously on the CDC board on Influenza. He has been the author on peer reviewed journal publications in the New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of Human Vaccines and Immunotherapeutics and he is currently the principal investigator on multiple Covid-19 vaccine and monoclonal antibody trials. He is also the Chief Medical Officer of Dillard University and Chief Medical Officer of Emmaus Life Sciences.

“Ascension DePaul Foundation and DePaul Community Health Centers (DCHC) are grateful to have Dr. Corey Hébert on our team and we appreciate the work he has done to improve the health of DCHC’s patients and so many others,” said Michael G. Griffin, MSPH, DSc, FACHE, President and CEO of DePaul Community Health Centers. “He is a well-respected figure in the community due to his ability to continuously provide excellent health care services. His reputation is a strong testament to the efforts he has made to promote and enhance health care.”

ADF will also honor Louisiana State Senator for District 5, Royce Duplessis, Mrs. Phyllis Taylor, Patrick F. Taylor Foundation, and attorney Robert Angelico at the gala. The event will begin with an exclusive Patron Party at 6 p.m., leading into the Gala at 7 p.m. This extraordinary event aims to raise critical funds for high-quality health care for all members of our community.
