About this listen

Benjamin Daniels is angry. He is frustrated, confused, baffled and, quite frequently, very funny. He is also a GP. These are his confessions.

A woman troubled by pornographic dreams about Tom Jones. An 80-year-old man who can't remember why he's come to see the doctor. A woman with a common cold demanding (but not receiving) antibiotics. A man with a sore knee. A young woman who has been trying to conceive for a while but now finds herself pregnant and isn't sure she wants to go through with it. A 7-year-old boy with 'tummy aches' that don't really exist.

These are his patients.

Confessions of a GP is a witty insight into the life of a family doctor. Funny and moving in equal measure it will change the way you look at your GP next time you pop in.

Critic reviews

‘An original book written by a real GP, which will make you laugh out loud and ponder over serious matters, all at the same time. Hilarious and touching.’
I LOVE BOOKS, Amazon (390+ 5* reviews!)

This is an entertaining book with some more serious strands in the anecdoctal stories that are presented. There are some stories that perhaps would be better not told in this way, but all would be recognised by many practicing doctors, and people in allied medical professions. Contrary to some of the other reviews, my feeling is that Dr Daniels is probably an excellent doctor.

Good.

Sometimes very funny, sometimes sad, this book doesn’t disappoint and is a very interesting reflection of life as a UK GP. Highly recommended and looking forward to reading the follow up. Thank you Dr.
Daniels - I thoroughly enjoyed your book.

Honest and interesting account of GP life

Very easy listen and narrated very well.
Easy for it to come across as arrogant but I believe its a refreshingly honest thing to suggest that you recognise sweeping judgements are made within the profession

Refreshingly Arrogant

This is the first audio book I have listened to and if I was going to mark out 10 I would say 11. It’s well written and well spoken and I feel as I can relate to books in this genre.
The best book to start on and a very good all rounder.

Damn good audio book.

The first audiobook ever
