Hilariously funny and in many cases unbelievably believable.

From a kid with a chemical laboratory in his bedroom where Peter would operate on frogs, to the hilarious experiences of a hospital Houseman, and the first few years of general practice. Also included are stories of a patient set alight in her bed, being trapped in the toilet with a patient and a colleague being defibrillated! It’s a story of childhood dreams to medical practice tribulations!

Peter Desmarais graduated M.B, Ch.B at the University of Pretoria South Africa in 1971. He relates the funny side of his experiences at medical school, his internship at Addington hospital Durban and the first few years of his life as a general practitioner.
