ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“This Is Going to Hurt” by Adam Kay is a candid and darkly humorous memoir about his experiences as a junior doctor in the NHS. Through his diary entries, Kay provides a raw and often funny look at the daily challenges faced by medical professionals, from long hours and life-or-death decisions to the emotional toll of patient care. Blending humor with tragedy, Kay explores the complexities of the medical profession, the pressures of working in an underfunded healthcare system, and the personal sacrifices made by doctors. The book highlights the human side of medicine, offering insight into both the highs and lows of the job.
