Recently retired, Dr Sparrow reveals with refreshing candour and dark humour the most memorable experiences of his career as a rural GP on the Devon\/Cornwall border. From sewing a patient's finger back on during a call-out, to 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. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Sparrow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1788420748\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781788420747\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Duckworth Books Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/10\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.51d","brand":"Michael Sparrow","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43993598034175,"sku":"9781788420747","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_48b0d77a-c427-4a2a-89f8-b569a7e1214e.jpg?v=1683325229","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/diary-of-a-rural-gp-michael-sparrow-9781788420747","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
