They see us as the clients who bring in the patients and pay the bill, but they also see our sins, flaws, and weirdness reflected in our animals. Dr. Skaggs recognized early on that this was a rich source of humor—not ridicule, not humor that cuts, but the kind of organic humor that allows us to laugh at ourselves.” –John R. Erickson, author of Hank the Cowdog seriesThe small-town veterinary clinic is abuzz again!

The resulting melee reveals that one of the bleeding creatures in the room is a male.What about the devoted Catholic dog deserving an official burial and the devastation to animals and people after a vicious tornado? The story of the elderly beauty pageant contestant testing her cursing talent for the Baptist preacher will tickle your funny bone and keep you in stitches.Experience the trials, tribulations, and heartwarming stories of animals and their owners through the eyes of Dr. Skaggs.

Description:

READY TO FINALLY BE A DOCTOR? WELL, JOHN STILL WASN’T EITHER…John's medical (and personal) adventures continue with this insightful, often hilarious, self-deprecating memoir of fumbling through the final year of residency training as the reality of working as a doctor rapidly approaches. This third part in the Playing Doctor series brings John's unique and candid storytelling to his year as senior resident and into the first months of his medical practice.Initially, John penned email blasts while being held captive on call nights. His descriptions of the escapades, mishaps, disorder, and terror that surrounded his training, led several friends to enquire if he has broken into the hospital pharmacy. Eventually, someone asked to publish the stories, so John replied that he'd write down the whole adventure of becoming a doctor from medical school through residency.
