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.

CAPTIVATING
I enjoyed this very much, I've had a bad time with Drs lately. Good to hear how it really is. I've sent it to one of them.

Poorly edited but interesting
I enjoyed listening to the GP’s stories, but the number sections that had been re-recorded but not deleted is off putting. This needs an editor or proof-listener!

Refreshingly Arrogant
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

Good stories, poor narration.
At times the author is a little pompous in his attitudes, but the anecdotes are generally well put together and give an interesting account of the life of a GP. However, the narrator turns slightly pompous attitudes into full blown snobbery. The accents that he gives to the patients portray everyone as idiots. Sometimes these accents are in keeping with the characters, but most of the time they are unnecessarily rude.
