A Case Study: Oliver Sacks, MD Interviewed

Oliver Sacks, MD, author of The Man who Mistook his Wife for a Hat and other titles is interviewed by noted physician-writer David Hellerstein, MD. The interview, from 1990, captures Sacks's spirit and philosophy as Dr. Hellerstein meets him at his home on City Island, Bronx, NY, and accompanies the imaginative, eccentric and philosophically unique Dr. Sacks as he sees patients with baffling neurological symptoms in a Bronx nursing home.
