Big crowd greets GP's book launch

'Patient: Portraits from a doctor’s surgery' is the culmination of a two-year project by Bay of Islands GP Chris Reid to photograph virtually every patient that walked into his surgery. The book and accompanying exhibition were launched on Friday evening in front of one of biggest crowds ever seen at Kerikeri’s Turner Centre. The show runs until October 27.
