Summary

 This is Going to Hurt was the publishing phenomenon of the century, read by many millions, loved by at least fifty of them, and adapted into a major TV series. But it was only part of the story.

By turns hilarious, heartbreaking and humbling, Undoctored is about what happens when a doctor hangs up his scrubs, but medicine refuses to let go of him.

It's about an extraordinary medical school education.
It's about opening old wounds and examining the present-day scars.
It's about hospital admissions and personal ones.
It's about blowing up your life and stitching it back together.
It's about being a doctor and being a patient.
It's about 300 pages long.

Undoctored is Adam Kay's funniest and most moving book yet - an astonishing portrait of a life in and out of medicine, from one of Britain's finest storytellers.

This unabridged audio download, narrated by the author, features extra diary entries recorded in audio for the first time, and an audiobook exclusive interview with bestselling author and broadcaster The Reverend Richard Coles.

My only issue with this book is that I’d prefer it was longer. Very funny and just as great as the last one.

Having seen the tv series I found this even more brutally honest, also incredibly brave of Adam. Unbelievable facts supporting his own experiences and an obvious passion for wanting the nhs and medical schools to better support to their doctors. I laughed and cried. Working in a NZ hospital I was very sorry to find out that his short encounter with NZ was far from sweet. I’m so sorry that happened to you here.

Laughed aloud, cried inside. A powerfully honest mix.
