The Prison Doctor was such an interesting read, I really struggled putting my kindle down, what an amazing, inspiring doctor she is, I highly recommend this book.

I really enjoyed this book. Amanda decides to leave behind GP land where the politics are enough to drive the sanest person mad! She starts working in a male prison before moving on to a female one. What is obvious throughout the books how much she cares for the prisoners - some might say too much but most people deserve a second chance. I found it an easy read with a good insight to what life must be like inside,

Amanda was a GP in a small village for decades before being driven away by the new policies and taking on a new challenge in a young offenders institution. It's a really interesting insight into the prison system and the reasons why some people are incarcerated. Amanda clearly cares about her patients and it makes for a really great read. I flew through this pretty quickly and thought it was really educational and a good, quick read.

There is a glut at present of various medical professionals telling their tales either on a blog or in a book, it was interesting to read a book about an environment that I have little or no experience of personally, the book flows well and the author gives a sense of the daily hardships and frustrations that had to be dealt with
