Description
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to become a doctor? Are you interested in the National Health Service in the 1980s and 1990s?
Set in Wales and based on real experience, this humorous, character-led look at General Practice combines gentle satire with darker overtones.
Join flawed family doctor, Desmond Dennis, as he struggles half-heartedly in a floundering health service.
Meet lots of patients and learn about their illnesses. Valerie Vaughan’s first-hand experience of a wide variety of health problems has given her a professional air of confidence and the willingness to challenge any medical opinion. Carole Crosby is prickly and impatient. Tim Chapman is dying of liver cirrhosis. Ethel Austin battles bravely on despite her severe heart failure. Then there’s Phil Davies, Max, Anam Lakhani, Neil Plummer and many more.
This book includes 33 original, colour illustrations by Amanda Summers. It is best viewed on a colour device.
