testimonial 
"When the performers came to the hospital, those were the best days, I was suddenly in a world of laughter. I learned quickly that laughter was the BEST medicine. The performers helped to distract me. They helped me keep my childhood alive while I was fighting brain cancer. They were the best part of treatment! I will never forget them or how they helped me to face my fears and put me at ease when I was scared." - Rosie Colucci (now age 17)

"The ability for the Good Medicine Specialists to make each and every child seem important is inspiring. They bring smiles to so many faces!" - Coordinator for Creative Engagement, Nationwide Children's Hospital

Artistry

The Good Medicine Specialists use physical comedy, music, circus arts, magic, improvisation and more to bring joy to young patients and to help relieve stress, anxiety and isolation often felt in the medical environment.

Our Look

All of the Good Medicine Specialists are designed to be very approachable in appearance and action. Our performers all wear "medical" costumes that are uniquely tailored to fit their character with minimal make up. Our movements and gestures are always appropriate to the environment and are fun, playful, and gentle.

Visits

Good Medicine Specialists engage by following the patient’s lead, evoking humor through authentic connection and trust. We use the traditional role of the clown – powerless, confused, naïve and prone to mistakes yet persistent and hopeful – to empower patients in a setting that for them is often scary and out of control. All specialists are continuously trained in infection control and HIPPA regulations.
