Description
READY TO FINALLY BE A DOCTOR?
WELL, JOHN STILL WASN'T EITHER...
John's medical (and personal) adventures continue with this insightful, often hilarious, self-deprecating memoir of fumbling through the final year of residency training as the reality of working as a doctor rapidly approaches. This third part in the Playing Doctor series brings John's unique and candid storytelling to his year as senior resident and into the first months of his medical practice.
Initially, John penned email blasts while being held captive on call nights. His descriptions of the escapades, mishaps, disorder, and terror that surrounded his training, led several friends to enquire if he has broken into the hospital pharmacy. Eventually, someone asked to publish the stories, so John replied that he'd write down the whole adventure of becoming a doctor from medical school through residency.
