Dr. Robert Alan Hewko, a clinical professor in the University of British Columbia's Department of Psychiatry and former medical lead for the consultation-liaison service at Vancouver General and UBC Hospitals, passed away in December 2023. He was known for his dedication to clinical service, education, and leadership in medical psychiatry. Dr. Hewko focused on various clinical problems, such as delirium, pain, addiction, and pseudoseizures, and was praised for his ability to listen and help patients.
