In Rude Health

The Funniest and Most Explicit Stories from the NHS

Doctors, nurses, and dentists see it all in the line of duty. This hilarious, sometimes shocking, sometimes eye-watering collection of first-hand accounts from our valiant medical professionals will have you in stitches. From the man with a device lodged far inside his body whose batteries refuse to run out, to a woman with a plunger super-glued to her vagina, this book  recounts real life tales from the coal face of the UK's National Health Service. From doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, psychiatrists, and dentists come a range of eye-popping, side-splitting acts of misadventure that have had the medical profession weeping into their face masks as they attended to members of the great British public in their hour of need. In Rude Health is a riotous account of the weird, the warped, and the whacky ways we end up in the hands of the medical profession.
