What Is a Doctor? is a vital contribution to the ongoing debate about how we maintain an NHS that is both fit for purpose and free. Using stories and case studies from across his thirty-year career as a GP, Dr Phil Whitaker offers insight into the medical movements, political interference and societal changes that have transformed the role of doctor over the past three decades. Much has altered for the better but, even when based on good intentions, an equal or greater amount has been damaging and threatens the sustainability of the NHS. In examining what it means to be a doctor today, this book also answers an accompanying question ‘what is a patient?’ – and how we can all take a more active role in our healthcare. And, looking forward, Dr Whitaker describes what might yet be done to restore the NHS and its capacity for properly patient-centred care. 代替医療・補完医療 公衆衛生 医薬・ヘルスケア業界 政策・行政 自然療法

批評家のレビュー

If the NHS is to survive as a model of health-care for another 75 years, it needs thinkers and champions like Dr Whitaker to challenge policy and to ask how the system can reinvent itself. What is a Doctor? is a call to review, renew and revitalise the way we provide medicine, and to ensure that individualised care remains at the heart of the NHS (KATHRYN MANNIX, author of WITH THE END IN MIND)
Phil Whitaker knows the business of being a doctor inside out, and his moving and thought-provoking memoir of how the job has changed is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of the NHS (DAVID NOTT, bestselling author of WAR DOCTOR)
Calm, knowledgeable, and clear, Phil Whitaker is the GP everyone would like to have, and his prescription for the health service is full of wisdom and kindness. I hope it will be read by everyone concerned about how we care for one another, now and in the future (GAVIN FRANCIS, author of ADVENTURES IN HUMAN BEING and RECOVERY)
With meticulous analysis, deep vocational understanding and a palpable compassion for the human stories at the heart of all this, What Is a Doctor? is an essential intervention in the urgent conversation about the future of healthcare in this country (POLLY MORLAND)
This remarkable book shares profound insights into many of the problems facing modern medicine and offers a hopeful way forward - resuscitating the humanity that healthcare desperately needs. Simply brilliant (SIR DAVID HASLAM, past chair of NICE and author of SIDE EFFECTS)
If just one member of the government could be persuaded to read this book, there might be hope for a reinvigorated NHS and for its beleaguered professionals and its worried patients (IONA HEATH, President of the Royal College of General Practitioners 2009-2012)
