Radio Rounds

David Rosenthal is a primary care physician currently working to create a medical home model for primary care that serves homeless veterans in the VA Connecticut system. We interviewed him during his third year of residency in internal medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, MA. He discusses how his "previous life" as a documentary filmmaker plays a role in the care of his patients today. We feature some clips from his film, Witnessing Death: a grandson's reflections on Alzheimer's, focusing on the use of film to capture the humanism in medicine.
