Dr. John R. Diggs, Jr., MD

John R. Diggs, Jr., MD has lived in Western Massachusetts for the last 12 years. Prior to this time he served a ethnically diverse population of patients on both coasts. He completed undergraduate training at Haverford College outside Philadelphia, medical school in Buffalo, New York and post-graduate training in Oakland, California and Springfield, Massachusetts.   The family moved to Massachusetts when his wife was accepted at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst where she completed her doctorate in Clinical Psychology.

He has been called upon as a speaker and commentator locally and nationally on the topics of the sanctity of life and the epidemic of sexually transmitted diseases.   He has been a guest on "The O'Reilly Factor", and innumerable national radio shows including a recent appearance on the "Dr. Laura" radio show.

Dr. Diggs has been called upon to provide testimony to the Massachusetts legislature on fetal viability and embryonic stem cell research.   He is a member of the National Advisory Council of the Family Research Council in Washington DC. He is active with the Massachusetts Citizens for Life, the Massachusetts Family Institute.

Dr. Diggs and his family of three girls reside in South Hadley, MA where he continues to provide patient care.   He serves as the Hampton chapter representative to the state organization Massachusetts Citizens for Life.   Crisis pregnancy centers as far north as North Dakota, as far south as Louisiana, and as far west as California have requested his presence as a speaker for their fund-raising banquets.

The draft version of the agenda is:

New Hampshire Right to Life is the largest, oldest, and most active NH pro-life organization standing in defense of ALL THE BABIES!

NHRTL was founded to foster respect for human life from the moment of conception to natural death and to promote the right to life as the paramount social issue through educational, legislative, political, and other forms of lawful activities.
