Focus: PTSD
Francis S. Lee, M.D., Ph.D., of Weill Cornell Medical College in New York, still thinks about the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. At the outpatient psychiatry clinic, he sees a small handful of patients suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, caused by the strikes on New York.
