'Compelling and essential . . . will appeal to everyone who enjoyed Adam Kay's This Is Going to Hurt' Philippa Perry In this powerful and deeply personal memoir, award-winning GP Dr Laura Marshall-Andrews introduces us to the patients who have shaped her radical approach to medicine. Over the course of a decade spent on the frontline of the NHS, Dr Laura witnessed lives being adversely affected by one-size-fits-all treatments. Determined to create change, she began to envisage a new way to care that prioritised the lived experience of her patients. Created with the help of doctors, artists and complementary health practitioners, Dr Laura's pioneering holistic approach was revelatory. From those whose lives were changed by 'ineffective' drugs, to those for whom alternative therapies, kindness and trust proved transformative, her patients began to flourish. What Seems To Be The Problem? is a heartfelt story of hope, and an urgent call for change in our NHS at a time when it is most in need.

Seller's Description:
New. 2022. Hardcover. All doctors have the unusual opportunity of peering deep into the inner lives of their patients. In these riveting stories, award-winning GP, Laura Marshall-Andrews, recounts those moments in all their bizarre, comic and sometimes heart-wrenching beauty. In so doing she fearlessly reveals the struggles of her profession and details how our health system has been broken by fragmentation, over-regulation and the blind dogma of 'Evidence Based Medicine'. She shows how the factory-belt system has little space to allow or acknowledge the complexity of an individual's life and she argues the need to value each patient's unique story as being the key to their heath. These stories demonstrate how humanity, belief and love, unquantifiable and beyond the reach of mass trial and hard evidence, are much more powerful motivators for good care and it is these that should be at the heart of all health-care decisions. At a time when the NHS has never been more needed or more beloved, this no-holds-barred account from a busy GP's surgery at the NHS frontline is also a call for change......We ship daily from our Bookshop.
