Street Medicine in the Shadows | Newark News
Description
Dr. Edward Egan is revolutionizing healthcare by bringing clinics to the most vulnerable—under bridges and in encampments—where people need it most. His Street Medicine program eliminates barriers like insurance or ID, offering care with dignity and trust in places traditional medicine ignores. By building relationships over time, his team manages long-term health, prevents emergencies, and connects patients to formal care when ready. What he learns on the streets reveals profound resilience and the power of community—and it’s also training future doctors in empathy. This isn’t just medical outreach; it’s a movement to ensure no one is left behind.
