Reviews

It's all in a day's work for the James Herriot of human beings - Smith has an engaging style and beautifully captures the dramas in his patient's lives. * Glasgow Evening Times * An entertaining and insightful read. * Daily Express * Characters and cases unfold in this delightful book that reads like All Creatures Great and Small but with people instead of animals. * The Glaswegian * Dr Tom Smith is an engaging storyteller who invites the reader to sit back in a comfortable chair and slip into a slower, more innocent world * The Glasgow Herald * A joyous feast from cover to cover, and not bedside table should be without it. * Medical Journal's Association newsletter *
