What’s the Problem Doctor?: The Disabled in General Practice

Synopsis
Illustrates the rehabilitation of patients in general practice. A consultant rheumatologist and a GP, using three very different patients as examples, explain their view that the most successful approach to the disabled must be to understand their problems as they see them, rather than simply applying traditional medical criteria. The action is in narrative form with doctors and patients appearing as themselves.
