If you ask these three doctors to be GP, their answers are very similar.
One person told me: "This is probably the best job in the world." Another is "privileges." They are all talking about how they like to know their patients and their families.
But these three have different views on assisted dying.
At present, the law here is clear: medical staff cannot help patients take their lives. But that may change.
In Parliament, the ultimate sick adult (end of life) bill is being debated. And, if passed, it will provide some terminally ill patients in England and Wales with the option of assisted death.
Here, three doctors - Abdul Farooq, Susi Caesar and Gurpreet Khaira, who have different views on assisted dying - tell us how they feel about these suggestions.
Dr. Abdul Farooq is 28 years old and is relatively new to his career as a general practitioner.
We met at his home in east London. He gave his young daughter a bottle of milk, then walked to the corner and prayed at the local mosque.
His religion is definitely the key to his view of auxiliary dying.
He said: "I believe in the sacredness of life. As a Muslim, I believe that life is a gift from God and no one has the right to take that away."
Dr. Farooq believes that his life is wrong, so he is involved in the process - even indirectly involved in it is "criminal."
If the law passes - a patient comes to him for help to die - he will refer them to another doctor.
He said anything other than that would be a “red line I will never cross”.
Dr. Farooq's objection also gained his professional experience, especially his time in the hospital.
He described seeing “unrespectful deaths” – people died in busy wards – and said the health system did not get the basics in end-of-life care.
He told me: “If we have the right resources, there are a lot of things we can do to make the patient feel comfortable.”
"We have an entire field of medicine called palliative medicine that can help people at the end of their lives. So why don't we put all our resources and money into it, and actually make the death process less terrifying?"
He also fears specific parts of the proposed law. Doctors will have to evaluate whether the patient is expected to die within six months before approving assisted death.
Dr. Farooq thinks this is problematic. He said the last day or so was easy to predict, but added that he expected some patients who died within six months could still be alive in a year.
Is there anything that can change his idea of assist dying?
"No," Dr. Farouk said without hesitation. "I strongly object to this. Personally and professionally, I think it's done wrong for the patient."
Dr. Susi Caesar has been around for 30 years and thinks she might not have spoken out before like a dying person.
Now, she said she was ready to “spread her head over the railing.”
Recently, she lost her beloved father Henning. We met by a lake near Cirencester because being near the water reminded her of him.
"My father is the most amazing person, and it's evocative of everything he loves," she said. "Outdoors, walking, sailing, boats, kayaks, swimming."
She believes that Henning will be proud of her for talking to us about her views, because he is a long-time believer in assisting death.
Dr. Caesar said he was “very afraid of the way to die” when he was diagnosed with a terminal illness.
"My father was a very proud man, and the thing he couldn't stand was that he lost control at the end of his life - his physical functions, his mind, his ability to become his own."
By the end, Dr. Caesar said her father's medication "never completely kept up with his symptoms." For her, the argument for assisted dying comes down to the patient's choice.
She told me: "Everyone will die. Everyone should die for their own death. I want myself."
She admitted that many of her colleagues had “very very, very reasonable concerns” about assisted dying. But she said: “We have the wisdom to build systems that will work and overcome some of these obstacles.”
I asked Dr. Caesar’s support for assisted death would translate into her work in this field.
“I’m going to help people die in front of the queue the death they want,” she said. “I think it’s the core fun of my work – the end of a healthy journey with people.”
Dr. Gurpreet Khaira has no certainty of Dr. Farooq and Dr. Caesar.
She described herself as an auxiliary dying “contradiction to the entire subject”.
Dr. Khaira is a Birmingham GP, but first-hand experience as a patient.
In 2017, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She found chemotherapy was struggling and said she didn't want to go through it if cancer came back.
"I remember choosing whether I should have received this treatment or saying 'It's enough now' to feel very enthusiastic," she said.
She said it was very important for her to choose the end of her life.
Now, she is in a healthy photo, strides along the hillside with ease.
As a GP with decades of experience, she fears that vulnerable patients may choose assisted death rather than burdens on their loved ones. Or some families may force vulnerable patients into it.
“This is one of the biggest areas of my personal conflict. I know there are many plans to guarantee.
“You can be the best doctor or advocate in the world, but you may not take over where you are controlled or manipulated.”
For her, there is a fundamental conflict between her personal and professional experiences.
However, she added: “As a doctor, I am very reluctant to hand over the syringe to the patient to make a choice.”
Balance between these two aspects puts her “in a very guilty place,” she said, but added that it is not a weakness to be open. For her, making this decision was a "continuously evolving process."
Speaking with Dr. Farooq, Dr. Caesar and Dr. Khaira, their views on assisted dying reflect their core belief system.
In this regard, GP may be the same as the rest of us.
If the bill does pass the law, doctors will have to consider whether they are willing to work in the field of assisted death. They can be asked to participate in the process - whether this is a preliminary discussion with the patient who wants to die, a provision for prescriptions for someone to end their own life.
If they don't want to, no one will force them.
They will have time to think. If members of Congress do vote for next month, it may still take years to come into effect.
