About this listen

 In an age of industrialised medicine, how do we keep human connection at the heart of care? In this podcast, GPs Rupal Shah and Bob Clarke explore primary care stories where clinicians face moral choices. Drawing on their book and the “hermeneutic window” – a space for interpretation and meaning-making – they invite listeners to reflect on what matters to patients and how clinicians can rediscover meaning in their work.
