Oliver Sacks is a very famous doctor of neurology as well as a writer. He spent most of his adult life treating patients. Oliver Sacks mostly concentrated on disorders of the brain and nervous system. In a lot of the cases that Sacks dealt with, there was nothing he was able to do to heal the patients. His goal was to find a way to live with and accept their condition as well as possible. Sacks enjoyed dealing with cases mostly about experiences of real people struggling to live with unusual conditions. That’s where he wanted to find ways to help these patients to the best of his and medical ability out there. Throughout his cases he studied he came across patients who had different

Robert Ader was born in the Bronx on 20 February 1932, the elder of Nathan and Mae Ader’s two sons. He attended the Horace Mann School in the Bronx, and in 1949 entered Tulane University, from which he graduated in 1953 with a B.S. in psychology.

An aspect of treatment that was new to me during this chapter was psychosurgery. I had heard of a lobotomy prior to the chapter, however, had never truly knew what it was. This method of treatment is not used today. A prefrontal lobotomy was once the most common form of psychosurgery. The procedure involved placing an icepick under the patient's eyelid, tapping the pick with a hammer, and trying to sever the connections between the frontal lobe and the thalamus. Before the procedure began, patients underwent electroconvulsive therapy until they were unconscious. The individual’s who went under this procedure exhibited violent behavior or lacked emotional control. The process stopped in the 1950’s once the antipsychotic medications became available.

Psychiatry has always weaved its way into the fabric of my life. When I was a young adult watching my father battle with alcoholism was challenging. The only time I witnessed change was once we found a compassionate and understanding Psychiatrist. I marveled at his work, how he applied his medical knowledge and his articulate communication which resonated with his patients. I went on to complete a honors degree in psychology and enter medical school with a focus on psychiatry. I attended various psychiatric lectures within the hospitals and found my psychiatry rotations fulfilling and a perfect fit. At the 2017 APA national conference, my choice to become a psychiatrist became solidified. I met enthusiastic and loving physicians, residents and staff. They illustrated their lifestyles, patient dynamic, and future medical opportunities. My goals
