About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

60 hours a week

240 patients

10 minutes to make a diagnosis

Welcome to the surgery

Charting his 15 years working as a GP, from rookie to becoming a partner in one of the UK’s busiest surgeries, Dr Amir Khan’s stories are as much about community and care as they are about blood tests and bodily fluids.

Along the way, he introduces us to the patients that have taught him about love, loss and family - from the regulars to the rarities - giving him the most unbelievable highs and crushing lows and often in just 10 minutes.

There is the unsuspecting pregnant woman about to give birth at the surgery, the man offering to drop his trousers and take a urine sample there and then, the family who needs support through bereavement, the vulnerable child who will need continuing care for a long-term health condition and, of course, the onset of the COVID-19 that tested the surgery at every twist and turn. But, it’s all in a day’s work for Amir.

The Doctor Will See You Now is a powerful story of hope, love and compassion, but it’s also a rare insider account of what really goes on behind those surgery doors.

really good book, love the passion and love that he shows throughout the book for his job and for his patients he sees, you can tell he really cares, i laughed and cried in this book and will happily listen again.

Loved it

As a fellow clinician this was as cathartic to hear as much as Dr Khan states it was to write. But a valuable listen for all patients as well. Thank you for striking so many chords and helping me re discover my enjoyment of GP land.

Struck so many chords for me.

I really enjoyed listening to Dr Khan's lovely calm voice telling his stories from the coal face of general practice. Sad stories and heartwarming stories alike. Definitely worth listening to. I'd love to have Dr Khan as my GP
