This week GP Sarah Westerbeek joins Nik to discuss a news story that has caught her attention and also chat about the documentary on BBC iPlayer Rob Burrow: My Year with MND.
As usual we also look at some of the medical news headlines and the week in daytime TV... What might our patients have read or watched that could bring them in to see us?
