A Psychiatrist's Stories of His Most Bizarre Cases

A FREE Lecture-By-Phone with

Dr. Small, M.D.

True stories are more bizarre than any fiction, and Dr. Small knows this

best. After thirty distinguished years of psychiatry, Small has seen it all and

during this lecture he opens his office doors for the first time to tell all

about the most mysterious, intriguing and bizarre patients of his career.

Often funny, sometimes tragic, and always compelling, Dr. Small takes you on a

tour of his career that moves from the halls of a crowded inner-city Boston

emergency room to the multi-million dollar ski lodges of the nations elite. In

between, he introduces a strange cast of true-life characters and conditions,

while dealing with secret double lives, a man convinced that his penis is

shrinking, and frighteningly psychotic romantic desires. His career and personal

life come full circle when his own mentor becomes his patient, making Small

realize that no one is beyond mental exploration not even himself.
