À propos de la quatrième de couverture

'A fascinating account of what it's actually like to be a GP dealing with all the surprises that come your way, appointment after appointment, in those ten minute slots they have to deal with all your ailments every morning. A very engrossing read'
Jonathan Ross, BBC Radio 2 Arts Show

The Appointment lets you get inside the mind of the professional you rely on to look after your health. From the complex medical detective work to the subtleties of doctor-patient communication, experienced GP Dr Graham Easton offers an intimate and honest account of how he tries to make sense of a patient's problems and manage them during an all-too-brief appointment in an over-stretched healthcare system.

'Buy it; read it; recommend it - give it, if necessary - to anyone who needs to be set straight about the worth and complexity of general practice.'
Roger Neighbour, OBE, Former President of the Royal College of General Practitioners
