Viktor Weichbold

Funny that there are so many docs writing novels or poems... I too! As for me: I'm MD (specialized in hearing disorders), psychologist, statistician and theologist (you surely don't believe it, but it's true). - I wrote several novels, however, all of them in German. Among those published there is one dealing with a specifically medical subject: "The Dissection Course" - a kind of thriller. Cheers!
