60 hours a week 240 patients 10 minutes to make a diagnosis Welcome to the surgery. Charting his 15 years working as a GP in the north of England, from rookie to becoming a partner in one of the UK' s busiest surgeries, Dr Amir Khan' s stories are as much about community and care as they are about blood tests and bodily fluids. Along the way, he introduces us to the patients that have taught him about love, loss and family - from the regulars to the rarities - giving him the most unbelievable highs and crushing lows, and often in just 10 minutes. There is the unsuspecting pregnant woman about to give birth at the surgery; the man offering to drop his trousers and take a urine sample there and then; the family who needs support through bereavement, the vulnerable child who will need continuing care for a long-term health condition; and, of course, the onset of the COVID-19 that tested the surgery at every twist and turn. But, it' s all in a day' s work for Amir. The Doctor Will See You Now is a powerful story of hope, love and compassion, but it' s also a rare insider account of what really goes on behind those surgery doors.
