The Global Humanitarian Summit carries on the legacy of Dr. Neil Shulman.
Dr. Shulman is no longer with us physically, but his spirit is strong and calls us to continue the vital work that he so lovingly and strongly believed in.
Neil Shulman M.D., a.k.a. the “real” Doc Hollywood, was a great humanitarian passionate about doing good and inspiring others to do good in the world. He inspired countless people to lead, as he always said, “a good dash of life.”
He was an Associate Professor of Internal Medicine at Emory University School of Medicine and the author of over 25 novels, children’s tales, and consumer health books. He was co-producer of the movie Doc Hollywood starring Michael J. Fox, which was based on one of his books. He also wrote and/or produced for CBS, CNN, and Disney. He was, at one time, a researcher in cardiovascular disease, receiving over eight million dollars in grants and co-authoring over 50 scientific papers. For many years, he was traipsing around the world speaking on serious health issues. He performed for Rosalyn Carter, the UN, Disney, cancer patients, seniors, and kids with disabilities and participated in fundraisers with Jane Fonda and Miss America. He also served as Chairman of the Board for the real Patch Adams’ non-profit organization, Gesundheit! Institute.
We will not – we must not – let the legacy die of our beloved leader and great humanitarian – Dr. Neil Shulman!
