Poetic. Heartfelt. Transformative. Ryan brings the essence of his learning from a homeless mission's medical clinic to this brave and eye opening talk. Confronting the roll of exorbitant medical bills as a clear cause of homelessness, his talk restores hope that a just healthcare system, and society, is possible.
Ryan grew up along the Gulf Coast in northwest Florida. Pensacola is home to a massive military base where his father flew carrier-based fighter/bombers for the Marines. After attending college and medical school in Mobile, Alabama, he moved 3000 miles northwest to Yakima for residency training in Family Medicine. His 15 years as a doc have all been in Yakima. Things got interesting in 2009 when he quit his high-paying job to do volunteer work. Things then got really interesting in 2010 when he stumbled across the free clinic at the Union Gospel Mission. Ryan is now part of a growing collective of volunteers and uninsured/underinsured patients who breathe life into our community through the process of gift creation.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
