The medical stories NHS doctors tell can sometimes seem far-fetched or downright bizarre. Would you believe the one about the man who got stuck with half a paintbrush? The medical ethics of a woman using the hospital like a babysitting service? The day when two surgeons almost came to blows after a squabble over the OR? After reading this brilliantly realised medical nonfiction collection of short stories you will no longer doubt the strange and sometimes tragic circumstances doctors face in medical diagnosis and treatment. From humour stories about misbehaving patients to short biographies to moving medical stories with tragic ends, Dr Jay weaves a tale of over thirty years' experience, and relates some of the most interesting medical diagnosis and treatment of patients from his career. His narrative voice is rich and compelling, and each of the patients' short biographies is treated with the solid medical ethics we have come to expect from our doctors. Forthright and entertaining, this medical nonfiction collection of short stories comes directly from the horse's mouth and includes humour stories as well as short biographies that reveal some of the least pleasant aspects of life as a Surgeon.
