Healthcare Keynote Speaker – Harry Freedman

Harry’s very first job as healthcare keynote speaker was for Wyckoff hospital in Brooklyn. It was also his very first corporate show as a funny fake expert speaker anywhere. When they began renovating the hospital they brought Harry in to speak at a big event. He was introduced as a healthcare aide to Governor Mario Cuomo.

The doctors and staff went wild with laughter. The video from that performance got Harry started on a 30-year career as a funny fake expert speaker. And a few years after that show, Wyckoff took over 4 more hospitals. When they brought Harry back to speak again, The New York Times sent a photographer. The resulting photos ended up on Harry’s full-page profile in their Sunday Business Section.

Thank you for the amazing keynote presentation at our National Sales Meeting. As you know, this was the first meeting between our two main business units and we wanted something special to break the ice between the groups.
The results were spectacular and I have heard nothing but rave reviews about your great performance. The incorporation of the material about our company, its policies and our key people into your speech was flawless. Your delivery and timing were impeccable.

You had everyone believing you were for real even as you got them laughing hysterically. From the moment you hit the podium, you had everyone roaring in laughter, so it was no surprise to me, that at the end, you received an unsolicited standing ovation.

Your performance, coupled with the videotaped interviews of our executives, resulted in an amazing night of entertainment. The video, which you created on the fly in a 24-hour period, turned your show into something way beyond our wildest expectations. The video was so funny, that you had everyone including our President and the other executives you poked fun at, doubling over in laughter. Most importantly it was all done with style and class.

I would recommend you to anybody that wants a true professional who delivers an amazing show.

I have received rave reviews regarding your presentation on health care. Your ability to inject humor into what is typically very serious subject matter not only caught the management team off guard, it provided management a transition point from their very busy and demanding professional role to one of relaxation and excitement.

This year’s holiday party was outstanding. You came to our small town of McCook Nebraska and made a statement with your performance. You wrapped our industry’s issues and the personal characteristics of our business and our staff into your routine perfectly. This was a refreshing act to witness. It was hilarious, professional, and clean. I have heard nothing but praise for our choice in entertainment this year. It is clear that you put a lot of effort into preparing for your events.

There is only one problem with your routine; once your identity was known, it made it hard to have you back for a second performance at a future event.

Our attendees thoroughly enjoyed your show. The unique way you worked company information into your material allowed everyone to laugh at the idiosyncrasies that we all have and “lighten-up” our meeting for the remainder of the week. What was especially impressive was how quickly you were able to write a script with only three days notice and based on a few minutes of conversation over the telephone.

Sales people coming into the office this week continue to compliment us for bringing you to the meeting.
