Description: The often hilarious, at times horrifying and occasionally heartbreaking, diaries of a former junior doctor, and the story of why he decided to hang up his stethoscope. Welcome to 97-hour weeks. Welcome to life and death decisions. Welcome to a constant tsunami of bodily fluids. Welcome to earning less than the hospital parking meter. Wave goodbye to your friends and relationships. Welcome to the life of a junior doctor. Scribbled in secret after endless days, sleepless nights and missed weekends, comedian and former junior doctor Adam Kay provides a no-holds-barred account of his time on front line of the National Health Service in Britain. By turns funny, shocking, and incredibly moving, is everything you wanted to know - and more than a few things you didn't - about life on and off the hospital ward. And yes, it may leave a scar.
