Book description
Not There, Doctor continues the hilarious and heartwarming true story of a young doctor and his patients in the heart of the West country.
In the period leading up to Dr Clifford’s wedding day, the trials and tribulations of his procession of patients are a source of constant entertainment. There’s the angler whose salmon lure ends up embedded in the seat of his trousers; the bridegroom with a tattoo he’s desperate to remove before he marries; the pregnant woman whose X-rays reveal a truly amazing phenomenon; and there’s the Doctor’s own wedding when the bridesmaids appear in transparent dresses and the vicar forgets his lines…
Dr Clifford’s chronicles are a marvellous blend of human laughter, tragedy and courage that rival James Herriot’s famous stories in their evocation of a doctor totally at one with his world.
