This is a true story from the 1960s and 1970s. Adams was a medical student in Virginia. His slogan was "Cure the patient, not just cure the disease", which caused great controversy at that time. Mike Farell, the producer of this film, also has a close relationship with Adams. When Mike was making a TV series, Adams happened to be the medical consultant of the series. This time, Robin Williams, who is good at expressing wit and kindness and sometimes nagging little people, plays Adams, continuing the style in films such as "Death Poetry Society".

Hunter Patch Adams: Now you have the ability to keep me from graduating. You can keep me from getting the title and the white coat. But you can't control my spirit, gentlemen. You can't keep me from learning, you can't keep me from studying. So you have a choice: you can have me as a professional colleague, passionate, or you can have me as an outspoken outsider, still adament. Either way I'll probably still be viewed as a thorn. But I promise you one thing: I am a thorn that will not go away
Charlie: Is that all?
Hunter Patch Adams: I hope not, sir.
