In Stitches: The Highs and Lows of Life as an Aamp;E Doctor in stitchesDescription The true story of an Aamp;E doctor that became a huge word-of-mouth hit - now revised and updated . Forget what you have seen on Casualty or Holby City; this is what it is really like to be working in Aamp;E. Dr Nick Edwards writes with shocking honesty about life as an Aamp;E doctor. He lifts the lid on government targets that led to poor patient care. He reveals the level of alcohol-related injuries that often bring the service to a near standstill. He shows just how bloody hard it is to look after the people who turn up at the hospital door. But he also shares the funny side - the unusual `accidents' that result in with weird objects inserted in places they really should have ended up - and also the moving; tragic and heartbreaking. It really is an unforgettable read. First published in 2007 when The Friday Project was a small independent; In Stitches went on to sell over 15;000 copies in the UK; the majority of which have come in the years since then. It has proved to be a real word-of-mouth hit.
