It's Quack Month and Mrs. Pearlmania is doing a deep dive on the Dr. House of the 1880's. Dr William Stewart Halsted suffered extreme opioid and amphetamine addiction in a time where there was not much help. However he also pionered many medical practices still used today so we ask the question. Medical genius, Quack or something in between?
