Scalpels Out cover

In this conceivably authentic tale – set in 2005 – three young doctors are hauled over the coals for trifling, though politically sensitive, errors.

Expecting to be struck off – and unwilling to submit quietly – our three heroines devise a plot in which each apparently mistreats another, so that their employers can then be sued.

        By ruse, skirmish and subterfuge they stir up havoc and embarrassment for their former bosses and though not all goes according to plan, with a media exposé, the seducing of an HR boss and a sprinkling of good luck, they give their backside-shielding chiefs a tough time and end up more self-assured and happier than most of their robotic and nodding-doll former colleagues.

Despite a dash of colourful exaggeration, this is modern medicine.

 

All who have suffered run-ins with wily and callous HR operatives or sampled the bovine colonic throughput of two-timing managers will find pleasure in this high-spirited yet credible tale.
