Former AMA
president and pioneering internal medicine physician discuss the
issues.
Health care problems are as complex as they are abundant, but few
voices are offering anything that focuses on the deeper, underlying
issues. Two seasoned physicians will share a vision for progressive
change, inspired not only by experience but by a deep awareness that
we must build community in a meaningful way if we are to heal what
is broken around us. Join us for an evening of hard truths, positive
solutions and fresh perspectives.
 Lonnie R.
Bristow, M.D., M.A.C.P. is a former president of the American
Medical Association, after earlier serving as vice chair and chair
of the AMA’s Board of Trustees. Dr. Bristow has written and lectured
extensively on medical science as well as socioeconomic and ethical
issues related to medicine. He is a board-certified internist who
received his M.D. from New York University College of Medicine. He
is a member of the Institute of Medicine and was a member of its
Quality of Health Care in America committee, which in 1999 and 2001
respectively, issued the widely read reports To Err Is Human, and
Crossing the Quality Chasm. He was a chairman of the IOM Committee on
Strategies for Increasing the Diversity of the U.S. Health Care
Workforce when that committee issued the report, In the Nation’s Compelling
Interest: Ensuring Diversity in the Health-Care Workforce.
 Len Saputo, M.D.
is a 1965 graduate of Duke University Medical School, and is board
certified in internal medicine. After his awakening to the deep
flaws in conventional medicine, he developed a new paradigm that is
now known as integral-health medicine. Dr. Saputo founded the Health
Medicine Forum in 1994, and went on to found and direct the Health
Medicine Center in Walnut Creek, California—one of the first
integrative clinics. He is the author of A Return to Healing –
Radical Healthcare Reform and the Future of Medicine.
