An Eccentric Doctor in a Strange Place

Dr. Timothy Lepore, Nantucket?s only surgeon, is also the head of medicine at the island?s hospital, the medical examiner, the school physician, and the high-school football team doctor. He is also a world-class eccentric who has a red-tailed hawk, collects guns, and, until he lost the ability to sterilize them, would sometimes perform surgery using scalpels that he?d carved from obsidian. In Island Practice: Cobblestone Rash, Underground Tom, and Other Adventures of a Nantucket Doctor, New York Times reporter Pam Belluck tells the story of a maverick physician and the strange, isolated place where he lives and works. The show runs around 26 minutes.
