View from the Surgery & Reality GP are an amusing and poignant collection of articles, over two volumes, describing the cases of the many colourful characters who consult Dr Ken B Moody. The loveable old curmudgeon is a general practitioner working in southern Scotland. He writes of his experiences, past and present, and these currently feature in the East Lothian Courier and The Scottish Banner The Banner is the largest and most widely circulated Scottish newspaper in the world. It is enjoyed by the ex-pat community in Canada, US, Australia and New Zealand.
He is still discovering what constitutes a "lifestyle magazine" and featured in DGB Life (Dumfries & Galloway and Borders) so is a 'weel kent' scribe, both in Scotland and around the globe.
The editor of View from the Surgery enjoyed his chat with Fred MacAulay on BBC Radio Scotland. Fred described the book as "like James Herriot with humans!"
