What does a physician do?

John Quin spent his career in the NHS working with unruly patients, navigating hospital cliques and learning just what it was an endocrinologist does. In this chat we learn more about his career: the dark humour, the reality of working in Glasgow and how Nabokov got him through it all.

John's book, Dr Quin Medicine Man, is out now: https://www.bitebackpublishing.com/books/dr-quin-medicine-man
