The neurology patient was in his 30s before anyone acknowledged that he had a real medical disorder and was not just making things up. Andrew Banooni (pictured left) encountered the patient in his first two weeks of medical school, an experience that taught him an "incredible lesson" about the trials of getting an accurate diagnosis. In this issue of Emory Health, read more about what Banooni has learned and how Emory has changed the way it trains new doctors. You'll also read about how Emory doctors are helping Georgia be a leader in newborn screening for metabolic disorders, a heart surgery patient so inspired by his care that he became an Emory nurse, and development of a vaccine for Alzheimer's disease.
