Description
Dr Liz Lee has worked as a general practitioner in London and Bristol since 1986. Her area of special interest in medicine is the care of the dying. Her book ‘In Your Own Time’, published by Oxford University Press, is a guide for people who want to die at home.
For over ten years she has worked with the textile artist Susie Freeman under the name Pharmacopoeia. They are part of the modern sciart movement and have major work in national and international collections, including the British Museum and Wellcome Collection.
