Description
Book Synopsis''Stories that will curl your toes, make you laugh out loud and break your heart all at the same time.''
PROFESSOR DAME SUE BLACK, author of All That Remains
Why would anyone want to work with thieves, murderers and rapists?
Told from the inside out, this is a harrowing, humorous and hard-hitting tale of life behind bars by a prison doctor who has seen it all. Literally.
Dr Shahed Yousaf spends his time running between emergencies - from overdoses to assaults, from cell fires to suicides - with one hand perpetually hovering over the panic button. Being a prison doctor is not for the faint-hearted.
An outsider on the inside, in Stitched Up he introduces us to a cast of unforgettable characters, including killers, con men and auto-cannibals. To Dr Yousaf, they are patients first and prisoners second - because any one of us could end up on the wrong side of the law.
