Critic Reviews

‘Kay intersperses horror stories from the NHS front line with blissfully brilliant wordplay.’ -- The Daily Mail
'Painfully funny. The pain and the funniness somehow add up to something entirely good, entirely noble and entirely loveable.' -- Stephen Fry
'I’d prescribe this book to anyone and everyone. It's laugh-out-loud funny, heartbreakingly sad and gives you the lowdown on what it’s like to be holding it together while serving on the front line of our beloved but beleaguered NHS. It’s wonderful.' -- Jonathan Ross
