Flight risk : the highs and lows of life as a Heathrow airport doctor

Green, Stephanie2018
Books
Stephanie Green isn't like most other doctors. Nearly every day, she confronts life-and-death situations behind the scenes at Heathrow, where the truth is almost always stranger than fiction. From monitoring drug mules to treating refugees entering the UK and greeting and assessing any plane landing at Heathrow coming from affected epidemic areas, Dr. Green deals with any and all situations deemed to require a medical opinion at London's Heathrow Airport, often confronting dramatic situations on every shift. Through all of this, Dr. Green juggles 24-hour shifts and threats of a Level Four virus with the demands of running a home and looking after her two small boys while her husband works late most night as a chef-owner of a gastro-pub. Here, she reveals the exhilarating drama of working in the world's sixth busiest airport.
