34 patients : what becoming a doctor taught me about health, hope and humanity

Templeton, Tom2021
Books
A profoundly moving portrait of one doctor's life and work in the NHS. Look at the people around you. Now look closer. Is the middle-aged man right to be worried about the twinge in his chest? Why is the little girl coughing? Asthma - or something more serious? And what secret hurts are you carrying yourself? Doctors know our deepest fears, our private worries and our most vulnerable moments. In this breathtaking and uplifting memoir of the patients he has helped, lost, and those who have changed him forever, Dr Tom Templeton weaves a profound and moving portrait of humanity, asking us to treat all with compassion.
