Just a GP: Diaries from a Career in General Practice

Autor Denis Pereira Gray
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 iul 2024
‘With General Practice currently facing existential challenges, it is truly inspirational to be reminded what determined individuals, with a clear set of intensely human values, can achieve… This is the story of an extraordinary career during a profoundly important phase in the history of British medicine – someone who was justifiably proud to be “just a GP”.’
Sir David Haslam CBE FRCGP
Past President and Chairman of Council, Royal College of General Practitioners
Past President, British Medical Association
Past Chair, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)
This autobiography from Sir Denis Pereira Gray offers a unique insight into the life and career of a hugely distinguished and influential general practitioner, from what led him to study medicine, learning his craft in the 1960s, through years of clinical practice and research to senior leadership roles within and outside the Royal College of General Practitioners.
Through detailed diaries enlivened by wonderful anecdotes, both personal and professional, Sir Denis shares candidly with the reader a lifetime of experience gained and lessons learned, highly applicable today when general practice is facing many challenges and detractors.
Both informative and inspirational, Just a GP is an essential read for many who have journeyed through the profession with Sir Denis and those who are in the midst of or contemplating a career in general practice today.

Recenzii

'The autobiography covers [Sir Denis Pereira Gray's] professional career with copious references to the evidence that has driven his clinical practice. There is not much that he has not done ... His exceptional memory, written records, and press cuttings provide rich details, making the book an engaging rather than a difficult read ... Anyone currently working in general practice who is, or aspires to be, an effective influencer should read this to learn what it takes to make the changes to improve health care. It also explains what has often been lost from the institutional memory of organisations – learning from past experience.' - Terry Kemple, retired GP, for BJGP Life
