OBAMACARE: A Call to Arms for Doctors and Patients
Presented by Dr. C.L. Gray, founder of Physicians for Reform

WHEN: Wednesday evening, April 20, at 7:00pm and Thursday afternoon, April 21, at 11:30am
WHERE: City Hotel and Bistro, 203 Greenville Blvd (across from Wal-Mart)
Hosted by: Republican Women of Pitt County and the Eastern NC Tea Party

Dr. C. L. Gray is a nationally known writer, speaker, and board certified physician practicing hospital-based medicine in western North Carolina. In 2006 he founded Physicians for Reform, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving patient-centered healthcare.


Gray’s research, writing, and unique voice as a practicing physician moved him onto the national stage as a widely sought public speaker. He spoke to tens-of-thousands of people at town-halls in Texas, Georgia, and North Carolina during the summer of 2009. Invited to speak on the West Lawn of the U.S Capitol on September 12, 2009, Gray addressed the estimated 1.2 million people at the Tea Party’s March on Washington. In 2010 Gray served as the keynote speaker for the South Carolina American College of Physicians Annual Convention and for the North Carolina Federation of Republican Women.

Gray’s work now takes him to Washington and Raleigh, NC where Physicians for Reform has been tapped to help craft solutions to save Medicare and Medicaid from financial collapse. Physicians recently underwent the longest interruption of payments in Medicare’s history placing seniors at risk as doctors abandon Medicare in record numbers. In 2011 North Carolina faces a $3.5 billion budget shortfall that may lead to a devastating 15% cut to Medicaid. These dilemmas can only be solved through patient-centered, fiscally responsible reforms such as outlined by Physicians for Reform.

Gray’s current book, The Battle for America’s Soul, resulted from a decade spent in research and analysis of the history and philosophy of medical ethics.
