The doctor and the disease
Some of you might enjoy listening to a 30 minute podcast from a weekly radio show called, "White Coat, Black Art". It features Dr. Philip Hebert, a family physician who has PD recently underwent DBS and had a good outcome. Part of the program deals with the doctor's denial when the symptoms were so obvious even to his patients and the ethical issues he faced when he really could not properly discharge his duties as a physician.
I met Dr. Hebert at the WPC in Montreal a year ago. He stuck me as a man between a rock and a hard place. I feel that he made the right decision in opting for DBS.
