From the people who brought you the bestselling Confessions of a GP. From stampeding nudes to inebriated teenagers, young nurse Michael Alexander never really knew what he was getting himself into. But now, sixteen years since he was first launched into his nursing career - as the only man in a gynaecology ward - he's pretty much dealt with everything: Body parts that come off in his hands; Teenagers with phantom pregnancies; Doctors unable to tell the difference between their left and right; Violent drunks; Singing relatives; Sexism... and a whole lot of nudity. From the team that brought you the bestselling 'Confessions of a GP', comes a touching, shocking and frequently hilarious account of one man's life in nursing.

"I really enjoyed this book. It was light hearted and easy to read as it was split into small chapters. Gave a good insight of the challenges a nurse faces and a good read for me as I will soon be starting a nursing degree." — Tracey (4 out of 5 stars)

" I liked this book a lot- lighthearted and interesting. The perfect filler between heavy duty reading :-) "
" Gentle preamble through the life as a male nurse. This was given to me by my partner to read (male nurse retired) who read it first. He wanted more humour. "
" Not bad - some funny stories, some a bit dull. Read this book in the gym, so didn't really have to pay much attention to it which was nice. "
" Really interesting book! Kind of like Grey's Anatomy "
" Funny in places but that's it. Short chapters that seem to be in no logical order. Not in a hurry to recommend it to anyone. "
" I found this a great reader for travelling to work on the public transport. Light-hearted, but still able to give an outline of the many circumstances presented to nursing staff - esp male. I'd recommend it. "
" It was good, not as funny as gp but still a good read. I hope he follows through with his comment on the last page! "
