The Dog Comes With The Practice

Meer over het boek

This is a memoir that is in turns both deeply touching and laugh-out-loud funny. He recalls his early years working as a junior hospital doctor and as a locum general practitioner in Northern Ireland in the mid-20th century, before specialising and providing consultant obstetrical and gynaecological services in Canadas remote Arctic communities. His writing about technical medical matters is crystal clear, his humour typically Irish and self-deprecatory, his concern for his patients as individuals and his willingness to expose his own fears and regrets shine through. Lovers of All Creatures Great and Small will be entranced by this work. -- Patrick Taylor. New York Times and USA Today best-selling author of the Irish Country Doctor series.
