Very Insightful
This Is Going To Hurt by Adam Kay is a very insightful book about the life of a junior doctor over the years.
It is written in the form of diary entries. Adam Kay specialised in obstetrics and gynecology.
Adam Kay has a very personable style and is highly humorous. Humor is used to cope through some very stressful situations.
We see that at all stages, doctors are over worked, often continuing working long after their shifts officially ended. They are dedicated to the patients they serve.
I thoroughly enjoyed the book as I glimpsed the life of a doctor behind the scenes. I definitely laughed out loud at times as Adam Kay is clearly gifted with quick wit. It’s on to the sequel now.
