Interview: Suzanne Dooley-Hash, MD
Emergency medicine physician
University of Michigan Hospital



Anorexia is often thought of as a problem for teenaged girls.

But our next guest will tell you that for her, at least, maintaining a healthy weight and a healthy relationship with eating is a lifelong struggle.

Dr. Suzanne Dooley-Hash went public recently with her struggle with anorexia -- in an interview in the New York Times.

Today Sound Medicine's Barbara Lewis speaks with Dr. Dooley-Hash about whether she feels she has really "recovered" from her eating disorder.

Suzanne Dooley-Hash is an emergency medicine physician at the University of Michigan Hospital.
