The Unshockable Dr Ronx

4 miembros

Ever feel your GP doesn’t get you? Put off by long waiting times? Dr Ronx has a solution.

In this show, this A&E medic is swapping her scrubs for the streets. She’s tackling one town at a time, putting the call out for people who are reluctant to go to the doctor – and taking the doctor to them instead.

Ronx is in Croydon, seeing patients in boxing gyms, nail salons and cafes, and even heading home with some of them in her search for solutions. And as she hears from people who say they leave the GP frustrated or think the doctor won’t be able to help them, she spreads her message: that it doesn’t have to be that way.

In Ronx’s consultations, nothing is off limits: she diagnoses and treats everything from smelly discharge to mental health, excess sweating to spotty crotches and fungal nails to gender identity concerns. She meets a young trans man who’s suffering excruciating pain from the binder that flattens his chest, a woman whose hair-style is making her go bald, a student whose depression is leading to some seriously risky behavior, and – in the gym – a man who spends hundreds of pounds on his trainers, but needs to pay a bit more attention to his feet. He’s grateful to discover that his verucca can be fixed with a dab of superglue.

Ronx isn’t afraid to get up close and personal in a way Dr Google never could. And she draws on her own experience of mental health and identity issues to offer advice on a level and without judgment. Whether it’s tips on how to shave pubic hair safely, or straight talking about a drink problem, Ronx’s prescriptions are dispensed with heart and care, in her signature unflappable – and unshockable - style.
