This is not Jamaica ER of the UK's Channel 4. It's a kinder, more respectful & less invasive self expose of a Jamaican doctor's journey into and through medicine. Maybe a milder, Jamaican, version of Blood, Sweat & Tea. Even so, it is no less eye opening, even shocking, & can be funny as all...well....read it.
This book is for all those who have trod the road of what is considered standard western medicine ... where we make ourselves ill in school to learn to cure the sick...:)
“...Shocking though, as well as funny & educational…the thing that really interested me was the homoeopathic advice…”
- Mercedes Gilkes, Sales Channel Mgr. (ret), Intermec, UK
“Dr. Lowe captures the deeper lessons taught and learnt about fitting in and being true to oneself ... & de bobol doan pass er eider!. (confusion & nonsense doesn’t pass her either)"
- Francis Pierre, (former) Acting Technical Head, Blood Bank, EWMSC, Trinidad
“Interesting…” (what else could this hero say …)
- EA, high up, Ministry of Health, Jamaica
“They broke the mold…”
- Ron DQ, U Hospital WI ‘Knifeman’ (ret), Jamaica
