This Is Going To Hurt - Adam Kay

Secret Doctor Diaries

Rating: 7/10

As the title and genre may let on, these are tales, hilarious, mortifying and rather alarming, of a one man’s adventures as a doctor.  A man who is now a comedian…so there is that!

The anecdotes are very short and told with a degree of drollness that only the British are capable of.  Blink and you will miss it, and trust me you don’t want to miss it.

LOL Moments:

·      a confused patient mistook the ill man in the bed next to him for his wife.  Need I say more?  Please don’t make me…

·      apparently, a man can fit is entire arm up to the elbow into a women’s vagina.  No thank you…

·      a floater in the toilet bore a resemblance to a red and brown lush bath bomb.  Not so much bleeding as beets…

·      maybe one should think twice about shoving a sample cup up their who ha to in order to decant clean urine to pass a test.  Might get stuck…

·      a man lights a birthday candle and positions it in his penis hole in the spirit of celebration…not the blow job god intended…

Footnote: I was hoping for a Kitchen Confidential for the hospital world but that is not what this is.  Enjoyable overall, but mostly silly.  A palate cleanser for the reading brain!
