Dr. Bob's Clinic of Compassion

21,434 views
Doctor Bob Paeglow could be just another physician working in Albany, New York, but his patients will tell you otherwise. Although he could be making a comfortable living, Dr. Paeglow chooses to operate his clinic, Koinonia Primary Care, free of charge. The clinic runs mainly by the generous donations of others. Patients receive free medical care, or pay whatever they can afford. When patients cannot afford their medication, the clinic will even buy it for them! According to Dr. Paeglow, it is simply the right thing to do. His generous spirit embodies the true meaning of charity. His compassion heals not just the body, but the soul.

DR.Bob isn't only rare but inspires me. So many people need minor care and that this one man who could make money, money and more money has decided to put people first is encouraging. I hope many physicians and dentist see this and give back. Thanks for sharing this wonderful story.

In the richest country in the world, a doctor in Albany figured out how to provide medical care for the neediest among us. It's up to the rest of us to help him. God bless you.

He is being lead by God to do His will....we need more people in our World just like Dr. Bob. Our Father watches after Bob's needs, that's Bob's blessing while he is here on earth, his most important rewards will be given to him, in the eternity. He puts the needs of other people before his own, a righteous sacrifice, may God continue to bless him.

This truly is love in action. It has become way to easy for politicians and civic leaders to use a lot of words to win popular opinion, but Dr. Paeglow is using his actions to change the world one person at a time. Truly inspiring.
