The journal is a personal account and takes place over a one year period in many different clinics and types of clinics (primary health care, HIV/ AIDS, psychiatry) servicing the West Rand. It also contains photographs of the clinics, strikes and world cup celebrations in order to take the reader closer to the experiences.

Autorenporträt
I am currently a palliative care doctor working for Hospice. I studied Medicine quite late as I had first done a BA, Honours and Masters degree in Psychology. Qualifying as a doctor in South Africa requires 2 years internship and one year community service. My community service was done in a variety of rural and community clinics with poor medical resources. I wanted to capture some of these experiences through a journal.
