Adam Kay's first book, Will It Hurt, Doctor?, his secret diary from when he was a young doctor, has become a book phenomenon. It has been read by millions of people around the world, has been translated into 37 languages, and a successful mini-series for BBC television was created based on its motifs. But that wasn't Adam's whole story. Now Adam Kay is back - and he will make sure that the continuation of his life story will not only entertain you, but also move you. In his most candid book to date, he recalls what happens when a doctor hangs his coat on a nail, but medicine refuses to let him go. He talks about an extraordinary medical education and what it's like to open old wounds and look at the scars left behind. It tells about hospital admission and self-acceptance. About what happens when you tear your life apart and put it back together. Also about what it's like to be both a doctor and a patient. Funny and poignant, shocking and humble, Doctored is a stunning portrait of life in and out of medicine by one of Britain's finest contemporary storytellers.
