Overall I did enjoy the book though, and felt it did a good job communicating issues doctors in his position were facing. Curious to know how much (or little) has changed since its publication in 2017.

To anyone who uses, has used, or knows of the NHS service, I would recommend reading this book.
P.S. Grab a little thank you card or gift for your care team after your next hospital stay; goodness knows the government won't thank them
