The Good Doctor, Patch Adams is Coming to Town: Dec. 5-10
A Warm Welcome to One and All!
“Patch Adams has put on paper his vision of patient centered health care – a vision that has inspired so many over the years. Patch’s ‘crazy dream’ is, in reality, the root of what good health care should be all about. . . . Any health care professional who reads “Gesundheit” will come away with a renewed sense of mission and joy about what they do.” Rick Wade: Senior VP the American Hospital Ass.
Physician and Founder of the Gesundheit Institute
Patch’s travels bring him to Concord for a week, where the “Good Doctor” will speak at different locations (see the following) in our town about what we can do together – children, parents, grandparents – to serve the healing of our health CARE system, as glimpsed in the movie, Patch Adams, starring Robin Williams: A labor of love.
For further information on Patch’s visit, contact Stuart Weeks, Founder, The Center for American Studies at Concord stuartbweeks@gmail.com
All events, with the exception of the student assemblies, are open to the public. There is no admission fee; contributions, as your fortunes allow, are gratefully received to support the "Good Doctor's" valiant labors.
