The Prison Doctor
by Amanda Brown
emotional
informative
fast-paced
So as the title of this book probably obviously suggests this book is about Dr Amanda Brown who originally was a GP but changed career to be a Prison Doctor, first in men’s prisons and then in women’s prison.
I think overall I did enjoy this book but unfortunately I felt it was quite shallow and didn’t give justice to the hardships that this job and also the prisoners face.
I did find this story interesting and the font and set up of the book made it super easy to read so when I finally got round to sitting down and reading it, it was a quick story.
I do think it was a good beginner story to the role of a prison doctor but I felt it was just that, the beginning. There were very large parts of stories missing and the story felt very choppy.
I would have personally liked to know more of the hardships involved with this job because the other appears to have quite rose tinted goggles on for this one and I don’t believe that to be completely accurate.
However all in all a quick read that was still entertaining to an extent
TWs: This book deals with some major growth issues including suicide by multiple methods, abuse, assault, self-harm, drug and alcohol addiction and withdrawals, sexual assault and a lot of other things related to crime
