The #1 internationally bestselling, gripping true story of a frontline trauma surgeon operating in the world’s most dangerous war zones
War Doctor is a heart-stopping and moving blend of medical memoir, personal journey, and nonfiction thriller that provides unforgettable, at times raw, insight into the human toll of war.
For more than 25 years, surgeon David Nott has volunteered in some of the world’s most dangerous conflict zones. From Sarajevo under siege in 1993 to clandestine hospitals in rebel-held eastern Aleppo, he has carried out lifesaving operations in the most challenging conditions, and with none of the resources of a major metropolitan hospital. He is now widely acknowledged as the most experienced trauma surgeon in the world.
War Doctor is his extraordinary story, encompassing his surgeries in nearly every major conflict zone since the end of the Cold War, as well as his struggles to return to a “normal” life and routine after each trip.
Culminating in his trips to war-torn Syria―and the untold story of his efforts to help secure a humanitarian corridor out of besieged Aleppo to evacuate some 50,000 people―War Doctor is a must-read memoir.
David Nott is a consultant surgeon, specializing in general and vascular surgery, who has volunteered to work in disaster and war zones for more than two decades. He is the president and cofounder, along with his wife, Elly, of the David Nott Foundation, which provides education and training to improve the standards and practice of humanitarian surgery worldwide. He lives in London with his wife and two daughters. War Doctor, his first book, was a #1 Sunday Times bestseller and has been sold in four countries.
