* [[Dan Browned]]
* [[Dean Bitterman]]
* [[Disowned Adaptation]]: The real Patch Adams himself was dissatisfied with the film, saying that it is more commercial and focuses more on him being funny than his actual methods <ref>His philosophy is about using friendliness and humor to help in the healing process, the movie presented him as guy who likes making people feel better but actually ''getting'' better is a secondary issue</ref>. He was, however, pleased at being played by [[Robin Williams]] (though not so much Williams not donating a cent of his salary on the film to Adams' institute).
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: Patch's attempted suicide is what kickstarts the story. {{spoiler|He attempts it again later on}}.
* [[Fan Disservice]]: {{spoiler|Patch moons the audience at his graduation.}}
