Bob LeBow, MD, MPH (1940-2003) was recruited to Terry Reilly in 1972 to be the Clinic's first Medical Director. Over more than 30 years as a family practice doctor, he did everything from obstetrics to geriatrics. Bob was a caring and compassionate physician and a passionate patient advocate. A life-long cyclist, Bob regularly rode to the clinic, the hospital and even to make house calls for his patients. During his time off, Bob worked as a consultant in more than 20 developing countries and rode his bike over 200,000 miles on six continents.
For many years Bob dreamed of a Zero Pay Fund for the Clinic's most vulnerable patients. In July 2002 Bob suffered a catastrophic bike accident. While in intensive care, Bob said that he wanted to be a catalyst to help alleviate suffering. With generous donations from friends and family, along with proceeds from his book, Health Care Meltdown, the Zero Pay Fund became a reality in February 2003. The proceeds from the annual Bob LeBow Bike Tour benefit the Zero Pay Fund and help fulfill Bob's dream of affordable, accessible and comprehensive health care for all.
LeBow spent more than 30 years working to provide medical services to those who could least afford them. He was the long-time medical director of the Terry Reilly Health Services in Nampa, ID. LeBow became a quadriplegic after he was thrown from his bike July 25, 2002. His death was the result of complications of those injuries.
