If it goes into a journal, There's a donation in honor of this doctor so it advertisement for him & his honor that you gave on his behalf.
Different from a friend who isn't being honored by a dinner

Donate to the hospital, earmarked for whatever specialty the MD practices. Ask the Foundation Office if s/he has a special fund set up.

I know a Dr who had a patient who would buy him ties. Nice, classy ones that came with handkerchiefs. He wore them.

Also, monthly fruit basket from Harry and David.

Could be these were from other doctors that he referred to. I don't know. But they were work-related gifts.

PS I agree with posters who see no point in "a donation had been made in your honor" besides for on Purim.

No point?

The point is to say thanks.

As the wife of a doctor, I can tell you that my husband certainly doesn't expect gifts. On occasions when my husband has really put himself out for patients (above and beyond the call of duty), and they have shown their appreciation with a gift, my husband was touched by their expression of gratitude. It didn't really matter what the gift was. The fact that the patient appreciated his effort on their behalf was what was valued. A nice note, or when patients write to his superiors or the hospital about their positive experience is also lovely.
