Dr. Hunter “Patch” Adams is best known for his work as a medical doctor and a clown, but he is also a social activist who has devoted over 40 years of his life to changing America’s healthcare system. He believes that laughter, joy and creativity are an integral part of the healing process and, with the help of friends, he founded the Gesundheit Institute in 1971 to address the problems of health care in one model.
The Gesundheit Institute, a non-profit healthcare organization, is a project in holistic medical care based on the belief that one cannot separate the health of the individual from the health of the family, the community, the society, and the world. Their mission is to reframe and reclaim the concept of a “hospital.” Visit www.patchadams.org and www.facebook.com/realpatchadams.
