Great interesting collection of ‘short stories’
Very interesting book and patient stories, I’m an ICU nurse & it’s a great & realistic insight into an arm of medical care. Totally considering looking into a career move.

A great listen
The adventures of an emergency doctor, Ben Macfarlane, as he accompanies travellers whose plans have come unstuck due to medical emergencies, back home. Highly recommended-the narration and fast-paced cases are riveting!
