A man who has injured himself trying out his girlfriend's waxing treatment. A mental health patient threatening to fly out of the window. A hypochondriac calling in with stomach pains that don't exist. A mother with a heart condition - who might not live to see her child grow-up. Alex Rudd always wanted to be a doctor. And he always wanted to work nights in London. But it's a job that might drive him crazy - if he doesn't die of exhaustion first.

A man who has injured himself trying out his girlfriend's waxing treatment. A mental health patient threatening to fly out of the window. A hypochondriac calling in with stomach pains that don't exist. A mother with a heart condition - who might not live to see her child grow-up. Alex Rudd always wanted to be a doctor. And he always wanted to work nights in London. But it's a job that might drive him crazy - if he doesn't die of exhaustion first. It's the greatest city in the world - and also home to the most bizarre medical emergencies any doctor will ever witness. As an emergency doctor, Rudd visits homes across London throughout the night. Hypochondriacs, drug-abusers -- and people with household objects inserted in their nether-regions, his patients range from the mad to the moving. Lifting the lid on the medical services in the British capital, London Call-Out is entertaining and funny yet also eye-opening and informative. It provides a revealing look at the work of a sessional GP and examines the dynamics of a night-shift team in a major city. London Call-Out is a must-read for anyone who enjoys medical memoirs - and is perfect for fans of Benjamin Daniels' Confessions of a GP. Alex Rudd is a GP who now works as a locum in a variety of surgeries in London and the rest of the country. His name has been changed to protect the identity of his patients and colleagues.
