'The most powerful thing I come away from the hospice with every single day is the realization that every moment matters.'
Dr Rachel Clarke worked as a television documentary-maker before deciding – as a GP’s daughter, this was always on the cards – to study medicine. She now specialises in palliative care, partly because it is centred on the patient rather than on any disease. It is impossible to overstate the qualities that make Clarke a first-rate doctor: sympathetic intelligence, kindness, a sense of humour. And she is one of those crucial people who will not settle for second best.
As well as being drawn to the patient-centred aspect of palliative care, does the hard medicine also appeal? I interviewed Dame Cicely Saunders [founder of the hospice movement] not long before her death and she assured me the quality of palliative care meant nobody need die in pain.
