The Sunday September 13 episode of Radio Rounds (Episode 206: Rounds Goes Genetic) featured a dynamic and truly eye-opening interview with pediatrician and author Dr. Robert Marion, whose new book -- Genetic Rounds: A Doctor's Life in the Field that Revolutionized Medicine -- is a poignant description of his daily work in the cutting-edge field of clinical genetics.

He told stories that highlight what can happen to physicians when they are pushed to their physical and mental limits. And he offered advice regarding how aspiring physicians can survive.
