About the Book

When he arrives to take up his first posting as a GP in Collintrae, a small fishing village on the West Coast of Scotland, young Tom Smith isn't quite sure what to expect. Certainly, nothing in his medical training could have prepared him for what he finds - a baker with nine lives, Mad Maggie in the River Muck, and a gaggle of giggling nuns, to name but a few of the extraordinary cases that he comes up against in his first few years there.

Heartwarming, gloriously eccentric, Dr Tom's stories will touch everyone with their easy comic charm. They capture the beauty of the Scottish lowlands, the joys and sorrows of its inhabitants, and the richly rewarding experiences of life as a Scottish country doctor. Whoever thought that a job could be so wildly unpredictable...

'An entertaining and insightful read' Daily Express

'It's all in a day's work for the James Herriot of human beings' Glasgow Evening Times

'Characters and cases unfold in this delightful book that reads like All Characters Great and Small' The Glaswegian

Review :
It's all in a day's work for the James Herriot of human beings - Smith has an engaging style and beautifully captures the dramas in his patient's lives. An entertaining and insightful read. Characters and cases unfold in this delightful book that reads like All Creatures Great and Small but with people instead of animals. Dr Tom Smith is an engaging storyteller who invites the reader to sit back in a comfortable chair and slip into a slower, more innocent world A joyous feast from cover to cover, and not bedside table should be without it.
