Summary

The sequel to the best-selling Trust Me, I'm a (Junior) Doctor. The junior doctor is back, but working on the streets for the Phoenix Outreach Project. Unfortunately, his first year in a hospital hasn't quite prepared him for it.... 

He's into his second year of medicine, but this time Max is out of the wards and onto the streets, working for the Phoenix Outreach Project. 

Fuelled by tea and more enthusiasm than experience, he attempts to locate and treat a wide and colourful range of patients that somehow his first year on the wards didn't prepare him for...from Molly the 80-year-old drugs mule and God in a Tesco car park to middle-class mums addicted to appearances and pain killers in equal measure. 

His friends don't approve of the turn his career is taking, his mother is worried and the public spit at him, but Max is determined to make a difference. Despite warnings that miracles are rare and that not everyone's life can be turned around, Max is still surprised by those that can be saved. 

Funny, touching and uplifting, Max goes from innocence to experience via dustbin-shopping trips without ever losing his humanity.

Critic reviews

"Treats a grim subject with warmth and self-deprecating good humour...equally enlightening sequel." (Daily Mail)

Awful, cringe worthy accents.

Usually race through similar titles but struggled with this one a lot. Accents for other characters were uncomfortable to say the least

Brilliantly entertaining

This book is brilliant so funny, very well written this book made me laugh at loud it’s an eye opening look in to peoples lives that are often tragic but is written in a way that evokes many emotions. I have read all three books they are all brilliant each one as good as the last.
