Ellen de Visser is a Dutch journalist and author who works for the Volkskrant, one of the Netherlands' leading daily newspapers. That One Patient is her collection of stories from doctors and healthcare professionals about the one patient who changed them — the cases they'll never forget, the moments that transformed their practice and the encounters that reminded them why they chose medicine.
The book brings together extraordinary human stories from the world of healthcare, told by the professionals who lived them. De Visser's skill lies in drawing these stories out and presenting them with both journalistic clarity and emotional resonance.
Available as both a book and an audiobook, That One Patient offers moving listening and reading for healthcare professionals, patients and anyone who appreciates stories about the profound human connections that can form in medicine's most intense moments.
