Suzanne O'Sullivan has been described as 鈥渁 detective of the mind鈥�. She鈥檚 a neurologist who helps some patients with the strangest of symptoms, from so-called 鈥楢lice in Wonderland鈥� seizures to those suffering from temporary blindness or paralysis, and that turn out to originate in their subconscious minds.
By the time these people get to see Dr Suzanne O鈥橲ullivan they鈥檒l often have been to many specialists, undergone a range of tests and given a variety of diagnoses. Suzanne鈥檚 an expert on epilepsy, and the unusual ways that seizures can manifest themselves, who currently works at University College Hospital in London and for the Epilepsy Society.
As well as diagnosing and treating patients, Suzanne has also written books about some of her most memorable, and frankly bizarre, cases. Her first book, It鈥檚 All in Your Head, which won the Wellcome Book prize in 2016, describes many of her case studies involving patients whose illnesses are psychosomatic. But, she argues that this is an area of medicine that has not been studied deeply enough yet. After all, for the patients themselves, these debilitating symptoms are all too real.
