In "Diary of a Girl Doctor," Doreen Oyunge opens the door to a world that very few people have ever seen. With intimate and unfiltered diary entries, she offers a raw and authentic look into the life of a young female doctor in Kenya. From the struggles of medical school to the triumphs of delivering life and the heart-wrenching moments of saving patients from the threat of death, Doreen shares it all with candor and humor.
Doreen's tale is one of perseverance and resilience, and it's an eye-opener for anyone who has ever wondered what life is like for a female doctor in a challenging healthcare environment. With wit and grace, she demystifies medical jargon, and reveals the truth behind the doctors’ white coat. "Diary of a Girl Doctor" is a window into a world we all rely on but rarely understand, and it's an invitation to laugh, cry, and then stand up for better healthcare.
This diary isn't just a journey through the medical world; it's a mirror held up to society. Through it, we get to see ourselves as patients, confronting illness, poverty, and an underfunded healthcare system. We confront our own myths, ignorance, and entitlements as we watch the chaos of the world unfold within hospital walls.
