More on Patch Adams . . .
Meet Hunter "Patch" Adams, the real person behind the hit movie Patch Adams starring Robin Williams.  Patch is both a medical doctor and a clown . . . but he is also a social activist and rabble rouser who has devoted 30 years to changing America's healthcare system, a system he describes as expensive and elitist. 
Having devoted his life to the study of what makes people happy, Patch Adams believes that laughter, joy and creativity are an integral part of the healing process.

 What People Are Saying

"Behind his clown-like persona lies a great deal of wisdom, and it often falls to the   court jester to speak the truth that those in power need to hear."

"His message was timely. He spoke with passion. He was intelligent and challenged our students to think about themselves and their beliefs. He was intense in personal moments and let our students know that thinking is a full time obligation."

-- Jeff Venekamp, Augustana College

"Patch set new standards for the event as a speaker. He was mind blowing and raised the event to new heights. His presentation was entirely relevant to the audience."
