'Very funny and frank' Independent 'Reads like Scrubs: The Blog ...
funny and awful in equal measure' Observer * * * * * * * The
bestselling real life story of a hapless junior doctor, based on
his columns written anonymously for the Telegraph. IF YOU'RE GOING
to be ill, it's best to avoid the first Wednesday in August. This
is the day when junior doctors graduate to their first placements
and begin to face having to put into practice what they have spent
the last six years learning. Starting on the evening before he
begins work as a doctor, this book charts Max Pemberton's touching
and funny journey through his first year in the NHS. Progressing
from youthful idealism to frank bewilderment, Max realises how
little his job is about 'saving people' and how much of his time is
taken up by signing forms and trying to figure out all the
important things no one has explained yet -- for example, the
crucial question of how to tell whether someone is dead or not.
Along the way, Max and his fellow fledgling doctors grapple with
the complicated questions of life, love, mental health and how on
earth to make time to do your laundry. All Creatures Great and
Small meets Bridget Jones's Diary, this is a humorous and
accessible peek into a world which you'd normally need a medical
degree to witness. If you enjoy Trust Me, I'm a (Junior) Doctor,
don't miss the follow-up titles Where Does It Hurt? and The Doctor
Will See You Now.
