Doctor/Poet Rafael Campo finds rhythm through a stethoscope

Rafael Campo is a doctor, professor and highly-regarded poet who has just published his sixth volume titled, "Alternative Medicine," which explores the primal relationship between language, empathy and healing. For Campo, poetry and healing are intricately related. "To me the patients voice, the stories they have to tell are absolutely central to the work of healing."
