leonormsousa's review against another edition
5.0
- the bigger message: no health care provider does what they do for money, they do it to help other people and for passion
- incredibly funny and witty
- very honest and raw, maybe a consequence of the descriptive and factual tone: the author does not try to paint himself or anyone else in a good or bad light
- great insights into the life of a medical care taker (doctor):
- the lack of working conditions
- their struggles with balancing work with personal life
- the pressure and the emotional weight they’re under
- the feeling of unreadiness and how they grow as doctors with time
- working in public vs private healthcare
- the side notes explaining the more medical/technical terms really help guide us common people
- the author narration in the audiobook is exceptional
WHAT I DIDN'T ENJOY
- if you’re not from the UK or are not familiarized with its health and education systems, there might be a couple of things that you don’t grasp as well. it's not something that affects your reading experience much and tbh a google search can probably solve it...
RECOMMENDED TO
- everyone!
- i feel like it’s an essential read to better understand and appreciate the work of health care providers
- i imagine it might be especially interesting for other healthcare providers since they will probably relate to some of the experiences
- the only exception to my recommendation is if you have triggers connected to medical content & pregnancies (recommend checking the full list of TWs)
