- What is your profession? - I am a G.P. [US: family doctor]. - What's it like? - It can be hard sometimes because I work a lot and I have many patients. And of course, it's always sad when someone is very ill. But it's also very rewarding because I know that I'm helping people. And I've worked in the same town for a long time now, so I know a lot of families very well!
