Wilhelm Robert Fliess (29 December 1895 – 9 May 1970) was a German-American physician and psychoanalyst. He was the son of Wilhelm Fliess, a controversial otolaryngologist whose pseudoscientific theories influenced Sigmund Freud. He coined the term ambulatory psychosis.[3] He wrote about sexual abuse and hinted that his father had abused him.[4]
He immigrated to the United States in 1933 and worked as a physician.[1] His cousin Beate Hermelin was a German-born experimental psychologist, who worked in the UK.
He died of liver cancer in 1970.[5]
