Description

The Doctor Will See You Now is a powerful and honest account of Amir Khan's 15 years as a GP, from rookie to partner in one of the UK's busiest surgeries. With 60 hours a week and 240 patients to manage, Amir shares stories of the highs and lows of his career, including the patients who have taught him about love, loss and family.

From the unsuspecting pregnant woman about to give birth at the surgery, to the man offering to drop his trousers for a urine sample, Amir's stories are as much about community and care as they are about blood tests and bodily fluids. The book also explores Amir's experiences during the coronavirus pandemic and the historic vaccination effort.

This rare insider account of what really goes on behind the surgery doors offers a unique glimpse into the world of a GP. With compassion, bravery and a big heart, Amir shares his story of hope, love and compassion, making for a compelling and thought-provoking read.
