Meet The Timmy Talks Presenters

Dr. Chuck Dietzen, a pediatric rehabilitation specialist, founded Timmy Global Health in 1997 with a vision to expand access to healthcare while inspiring students and medical professionals to become future humanitarians. His commitment to serving underserved communities began in 1992 and grew through medical missions in Haiti, the former Soviet Union, and India, where he had the opportunity to work alongside Mother Teresa. Growing up in Kokomo, Indiana, Dr. Chuck’s family welcomed 150 foster children into their home, an experience that helped shape his calling to work with children. Dr. Chuck has been recognized for his contributions with the Sagamore of the Wabash, Indiana’s highest honor awarded by the governor, as well as the Indiana School of Medicine’s Distinguished Medical Alumni Award.
