The inimitable curiosity of a boy whose cactus has left his hand in a mess. A distraught woman who regrets not going to see a GP sooner. More Googled self-diagnoses than one can count... After three years as one of London's doctors - as full-time night-time GP doing the house calls that no-one else wants to do - Alex Rudd has switched to working in surgeries. Rudd travels to a different place surgery each day, helping those struggling to cope with patient numbers and seeing those that might not otherwise be seen.
