"This is going to hurt".

[YuliK]

Dr Adam Kay wrote this book.

On the wonderful PMR forum, nearly every day we have discussed DOCTORS....both their downfalls and their wonderful caring treatment..

I have nearly finished reading this amazing book, and thought others may enjoy going 'behind the scenes' with our healers..

It's an award winning No 1 best seller...Sunday Times

I honestly couldn't put the book down, and I must admit it's a bit embarrassing when I burst out laughing on the train at what I'm reading. 😂

Enjoy as I did. 🌹

Yes, excellent read but maybe not in public!😂😂😂

Love this book - I downloaded it! Good to see the "other side" of being a doctor.

I had this on my book list, so very pleased to hear it was good. Thanks

[Charlie1boy]

Yes - a truly excellent book. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. An absolute must read to get real insight into the NHS. I remember thinking he should have sent a signed copy to Jeremy Hunt, who was i/c the NHS when I read the book.

Sad he gave up medicine. I even have a signed copy as my sister met him at the Hay Festival a while back.

Piglette I was thinking exactly the same thing as you whilst reading his book.

Shame he gave up medicine..not too many of his honest character these days. 😢

He has a great sense of humour, together with a very appealing sympathetic attitude to his patients ..

I hope others will read this . It's an eye opener. 😂

Does the book just reflect the Doctors in England?

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Baileyw06]

The UK as a whole I imagine - there are subtle differences as far as administration is concerned but medical school is the same and it doesn't matter where you trained, you can work anyway.

[YuliK in reply to Baileyw06]

Yes it does ...Dr Adams spent most of his time training at a well known London hospital.

I loved this book. It has certainly given me a view from the Doctors perspective. I must say they do deserve more respect and pay for what they have to deal with.

I am on another book now. Max Pemberton Trust me I'M A (Junior) Doctor). It is also excellent and worth a read. At our last meeting in Ilkley we had a Bring and Buy sale for PMRGCAuk. Someone brought in the Adam Kay book someone else took it home. I hope they enjoy it as much as I did.

[YuliK in reply to Estellemac]

Thank you 😊 I've made a note of it ..
