Living Gratefully: Dr Amir Khan opens up to Mona Siddiqui

In this podcast, Mona Siddiqui speaks to the celebrity Bradford based GP Dr Amir Khan. A highly successful and motivated GP, Amir has become a familiar face on national TV, especially after his appearance in the hugely popular Channel 5 series, GPs Behind Closed Doors. Here he talks about growing up in Bradford, gratitude for his grammar school education, the challenges of fitting in, and his love for the NHS.  While Amir enjoys working as a doctor, and his growing media career, he has attracted a big social media following because of his wonderful nature posts and the amusing anecdotes he shares about his relationship with his mother, #MamaKhan.

In a time like no other we have known before; a time when we are living closely with some, distantly from most others, this podcast series examines human relationships, how we form them and what they mean to us, against a background of what it means to feel gratitude.Our host, scholar and broadcaster Mona Siddiqui, asks the probing questions, and her guests – musician Ricky Ross, author Val McDermid, former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams among others – open their hearts and minds. Living Gratefully examines how gratitude shapes our relationships with others, and how cultural relationships shape public discourse.
