Review
One of the most entertainingly subversive people on the planet. --Nancy Banks Smith, The Guardian<br /><br />Sceptical, irreverent, very funny and like a mighty gust of fresh air in a field that's bedevilled with cover-ups and cloaked in a vow of silence. --Time Out<br /><br />It is very much in people's interest to stop blindly trusting the surgeon to do his or he best, and move to a position of informed scepticism . . . If you have any doubts about whether this is strictly necessary, Hammond's book will put you right. --Dr James Le Fanu, Sunday Telegraph

Product Description
Phil Hammond has spent 16 1/2 years exposing the dark side of medicine in the pages of Private Eye, and suggesting ways to make the NHS safer. His columns nearly stopped the Bristol heart scandal and have helped make surgery safer for some children. But much of healthcare remains dangerous and unacceptable, thanks to the failure of successive governments, the medical establishment, managers and frontline staff to take safety seriously. Building on previous editions of Trust Me, Hammond provides compelling evidence that there is still much to be done, and issues a rallying cry for the NHS to ditch commercialisation and unite around safety. And he suggests questions that patients could ask to get better, safer care.
