The Survivor is a powerful firsthand account from Dr. Jamal M. Salha, a young physician who volunteered in Gaza’s hospitals during one of the most devastating genocides in recent history. In this deeply personal memoir, he documents nearly 470 days spent inside overwhelmed hospitals, where doctors struggled to save lives amid relentless bombings, collapsing infrastructure, and severe shortages of medicine, electricity, and basic medical supplies.

Through vivid stories from emergency rooms and operating theaters, Dr. Salha reveals what it means to practice medicine under unimaginable conditions. From performing life-saving surgeries with improvised tools to treating waves of wounded patients with limited resources, he bears witness to the resilience of medical workers and civilians alike. Alongside the suffering, the book also captures moments of humanity, courage, and hope that persisted even in the darkest circumstances.

More than a memoir, The Survivor is a testimony and historical record—an unfiltered account of life inside Gaza’s hospitals and the extraordinary determination of those who refused to stop saving lives, even while their own lives were constantly at risk. It is a story of survival, sacrifice, and the enduring strength of the human spirit.
