About Dr. Fran Hamilton
Dr. Hamilton was born into a medical family in Canada and has served internationally since 1979 in the fields of education and medicine.
In 2000, her daughter, Grace Shanti, was adopted in Calcutta, India. Fran’s family returned to Calcutta in 2010 to visit Grace’s birthplace and to form a local philanthropic partnership with Child In Need Institute.
The missions of the Goodness To Go social enterprise include mobilizing integral service, developing an integrated K-12 service learning curriculum, and preventing young girls from being sold into Calcutta brothels.
Dr. Hamilton practices integrative family medicine in Boulder, Colorado on the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.
I have known and been inspired by Dr. Fran Hamilton since 1995 when we began to work together at Boulder Family Practice. She is a deeply caring, genuine, and skillful physician with a wealth of healing abilities.

It was indeed my lucky day when a friend recommended Dr. Fran Hamilton. Dr. Hamilton combines both technical proficiency with a desire for improving the health of her patients and her community in a caring and compassionate way. She truly takes time to actively listen and partner with her patients to deliver the optimum holistic health care approach. I wish everyone could have a nurturing caregiver like Dr. Hamilton in their lives.

Dr. Fran Hamilton is the first physician who ever committed to a partnership with me for my health. Also, as my life coach, her commitment to patiently sharing ideas, wisdom, practices, and disciplines has improved my quality of life, just as her medical care has. She has spent her life sharing her great intellect, wisdom, and enthusiasm helping others. Goodness To Go is a glowing and sincere gift from her to those in need of fresh ideas, perspectives, and hope.
