Meet Patch Adams, a doctor who does not look, act or think like any doctor you have met before. For Patch, humour is the best medicine, and he's willing to do just about anything to make his patients laugh, even if it means risking his own career. Based on a true story, Patch Adams combines side-splitting humour with an inspiring story that transcends the traditional comedy.
