Diary of a Rural GP

Part of the series: Country Doctor
ISBN 9781788420747 Published 28 January 2021
£9.99

Recently retired, Dr Sparrow reveals with refreshing candour and dark humour the most memorable experiences of his career as a rural GP.

From sewing back on a patient’s chiselled finger on a call-out, and the emergency countryside delivery inspired by James Herriot, to suddenly remembering the body left in the back of a Volvo, and a small oversight that blew up the local crematorium, Dr Sparrow spares no blushes.

About the author

Michael Sparrow

Michael Sparrow

Dr Michael Sparrow charted an unconventional course from the immaturity and uncertainty of life as a medical student, through hospital jobs and a six-year spell in the Royal Air Force, to the immaturity and uncertainty of life as a rural GP. He lives on the Devon/Cornwall border, after retiring as the region’s longest serving GP.
