Global Health is Local Health: A conversation between Bob Einterz and actor and AMPATH advocate Jesse Spencer

Jesse Spencer, actor and star of NBC’s Chicago Fire interviews Dr. Bob Einterz on the transition from AMPATH co-founder to leader of South Bend's Department of Health in northern Indiana.

Ripples of change on a life, a family and a global partnership

Lea Anne Einterz surprised Bob and the audience by sharing a powerful story at the 2019 Tusker Tales event.

Lea Anne used her lens as a social worker to identify themes that AMPATH inspires such as gratitude, shared purpose, empowerment and community. These “side effects” of the AMPATH partnership go far beyond the practice of medicine and create a ripple effect of change.

Watch this special tribute to Bob, along with a surprise toast by their son, Rob Einterz Jr.
