The doctor's real name is Dr. Oliver Sacks. His website is: www.oliversacks.com

From his site's FAQ:
Q: What happened to the patients and other characters in the AWAKENINGS movie?
The movie AWAKENINGS is a fictionalized drama based on Dr. Sacks true account. There is no Dr. Sayer, but Dr. Sacks is still practicing medicine and writing books & articles. There is no Nurse Eleanor. The patient "Leonard" died, as have all the AWAKENINGS patients--but many lived long and relatively rewarding lives. Their real story is told in the book AWAKENINGS .

He is most likely in a catatonic state or dead. I know that the doctor depicted by Robin William is alive.

The movie was based on the book "The Awakenings" by Oliver Sacks. I found this quote online "We watch Ed come to life -- Ed, the real man behind the character Leonard L., his dark, intelligent eyes looking amazingly like those of Robert De Niro." There is no last name given, just the name "Ed". It doesn't say if he is still alive or not. I searched everywhere for "Ed's" last name but couldnt find it.
