Overview
Step behind the curtain of the NHS with this brand-new three-book paperback collection of real-life medical memoirs. Trust Me, I'm A Junior Doctor and Where Does It Hurt? follow Dr Max Pemberton's diary-style journey from newly qualified doctor to street outreach worker, while In Stitches delivers Dr Nick Edwards's unflinching account of life in A&E. Together they offer a candid, often hilarious window into modern British healthcare — perfect for readers who love true stories and hospital dramas.
About the Books
This collection brings together three talked-about medical memoirs. In Trust Me, I'm A Junior Doctor, Max Pemberton charts his first bewildering year in the NHS, starting the night before his first shift and progressing from idealism to the sobering realities of paperwork, exhaustion and impossible decisions — including working out how to tell if a patient has died. Told in sharp diary entries, it's a warm, funny and deeply human account of a rookie doctor's year.
In Stitches takes readers into the chaos of A&E through Dr Nick Edwards, whose word-of-mouth bestseller lifts the lid on government targets, alcohol-fuelled Friday nights, and the exhausting reality of frontline emergency medicine. Where Does It Hurt? follows Pemberton into his second year, now on street outreach for the Phoenix Outreach Project, meeting an unforgettable cast of patients, from an elderly drugs courier to a man convinced he is God. Together the three books form a rich, honest portrait of the people who keep the NHS running.
About the Authors
Max Pemberton is a doctor, columnist and journalist. His diary-style debut, Trust Me, I'm A (Junior) Doctor, began as an anonymous newspaper column and became a Radio 4 Book of the Week, followed by Where Does It Hurt? and further NHS memoirs. Nick Edwards is the pseudonym of a practising A&E doctor whose debut, In Stitches, became a word-of-mouth bestseller for its unfiltered look at life in a busy British emergency department.
Why You'll Love This Collection
Funny, frank and utterly human, these three memoirs pull back the curtain on the NHS from the ward to the street to A&E. A brilliant gift for anyone who loves true medical stories, healthcare humour, or an honest look at what really happens behind hospital doors.
