These days, Larry Zaroff may be spotted cycling along Poipu's peaceful byways in search of inspiration, papayas or the Garlic Shrimp Lady's van. When not wintering on Kauai's South Shore, this retired cardiac surgeon teaches medical humanities at Stanford where he inspires future physicians and scientists to appreciate the amazing vistas beyond the laboratory.
In The Right Time, Larry pays tribute to the mentor who inspired and encouraged him in his path towards enlightenment. Her teachings inform his Stanford classes.
In her book Between Doctors and Patients: The Changing Balance of Power, Lilian Furst wrote: “The physician is empowered by virtue of knowledge, while the patient is submissive because of need.” Lilian Furst died on September 11, 2009. At the end - not needy, not submissive - Furst in her seventies seized the power of death over life."
