Cruelty. Drugs. Suicide. Welcome to the world of the prison doctor!
Blood-curdling, heart-wrenching, and instructive — this is how the cases from the doctor's life and the stories of patient treatment can be characterized, described by a physician who considered it...
her professional duty to help those who are under arrest. All her patients — criminals. But, despite everything, she remains their treating physician.
Dr. Amanda Brown treated inmates in the notoriously known prisons of the UK — first in juvenile facilities, then in the infamous Wormwood Scrubs, and subsequently in Britain's largest women's prison, Bronczfield. She has seen it all — from filthy protests to astonishing cases of pregnancy, from monstrous assaults on inmates to relentless acts of self-harm.
In these frank, life-affirming memoirs, Amanda Brown shares stories and cases that impacted her career, reminding us of the importance of helping those whom most of us would likely treat with indifference."
