send in the clown...

...doctors.

And who are they?
Unknown to me until Jesse and Greg (the dudes in white coats) and Thompson and Jeff (the dinosaur and the green...poodle??) were just too interesting to walk by with eyes averted.

Clown Doctors 'inject' doses of fun and laughter into the long and often traumatic days of children, many with terminal illnesses, in hospitals around Australia and around the world.
Currently over 60 Clown Doctors visit 23 hospitals around Australia including PMH (Princes Margaret Hospital) here in Perth and this year celebrate 20 years of 'clown doctoring' in Australia.

And yes if this looks or sounds familiar?...think Patch Adams
