Hello everyone! I have written 2 books. The most recent is my family memoir Invisible Ink. My first book was an oral history about people who grew up in Wapping in the East End of London during the early part of the 20th century. I worked as GP in that part of London for 30 years and based the book on interviews I conducted with local people, some of whom were my patients. I have also contributed to a book about General Practice for medical students. I grew up in Cambridge and studied English Literature at York University. After gaining my degree I decided to train as a doctor. I suppose what connects these two apparently unrelated things is an interest in people. I am a keen amateur musician. I play the piano and the bassoon and have done a lot of singing in my time too. I live with my husband and several elderly cats in Stoke Newington, North London.We keep bees and are very fond of our garden.
