"No Time for Make-up"

Don’t know what to get for a fellow paediatrician’s upcoming birthday? Or that relative that still doesn’t fully understand what you do? They may be interested to read “No Time for Make-up” by flying doctor and paediatrician Dr Elizabeth Green.

According to publisher Exisle Publishing, it’s a “beautifully written and deeply affecting account of a woman raised in the Australian Outback, who then returned there as a doctor in the Royal Flying Doctor Service. It explores the beautiful and harsh realities of providing life-saving care in extreme conditions, as well as the quiet moments of seeing a patient’s bravery, gaining their trust, and being inspired to become a better doctor. A fascinating story about courage, human connection, and the people and places that shape us.”
