Media Reviews
I like your ideas very much. I have been, like many, scratching my head about how to make the NHS better, and the development of more skilled patients is a brilliant idea. I like the personal stories. - Alastair Macdonald, Professor of Psychiatry (retired), London Medical students gain a great deal from understanding people's life stories and from learning to think about individuals in the context of their whole lives, not simply their illnesses. It is also essential for them to learn how to work in partnership with patients in order to achieve the best outcomes. And undoubtedly, empowered patients are good for doctors too. - Shirley Cupit, Senior Teaching Fellow, University College London (UCL) Medical School There are lots of messages in here for anyone who has any dealings with the health service, as a patient, politician, clinician, or involved in any way with our health service. - Clare Whelan, OBE, Conservative councillor, London As a parent to two children with a rare chronic condition it would have been helpful to have read this at the start of our medical journey. Many wise words of wisdom for any patient, parent or carer. - Fiona Copeland, Chair, PCD Family Support Group at Royal Brompton Hospital, London
