This book is an absolute delight, which is even better as I did not have high expectations. It is the old story of the medical student completing his training, which has been told many times before. But this version is light, at times highly amusing and moves at a fast pace that makes it hard to put aside. I read it at virtually one sitting. Although it reads like fact, the author says it is totally fiction. I have looked up the biog of the author and find that his real name is Vernon Coleman and he has written 100 books, including medical textbooks, but only the first three were under the Edward Vernon nom de plume, so I am clearly not the first reader to find that he can write very, very well.

Fascinating

I'm a big fan of this author / doctor in all of his guises this series of books are a interesting insight into a young doctors journey into his future endeavours . With the highs and lows of the medical profession I don't think I'll look at my own gp in the same way again.

A Vernon By Any Other Name

Doesn't matter what name Vernon Coleman writes under, his stories and narrative are recognizable as his!! Excellent as usual. Kind of James Herriot like, only with people instead of animals.

A very good light night read.

I have found this book to be good reading to lift away the days problems. Therefore it relaxed me with humour before going to sleep when I went to bed. Just what the doctor ordered.

enjoyable

I would have preferred that this had been book one in the series but that didn’t decrease my enjoyment of learning more about Dr. Vernon‘s adventures.

This was a good read and quite funny. The encounter with his ex-physics teacher will remain with me for ever. Hilarious and cringeworthy at the same time.
