John Lawrence
Praise
"Playing Doctor is better than the medical shows. This book has me laughing aloud, imagining what it was actually like to go through these series of events. The humor is subtle, but also loud with the one-liners. "
The Playing Doctor series was a true pleasure to read. Across all three books, Dr. Lawrence brings wit, intelligence, and a lightness that makes the stories both engaging and approachable. He has a rare ability to speak to subjects people are naturally curious about with ease, warmth, and respect. I found myself completely immersed. After having John as a guest on The Him & Her Show, I admired his perspective even more. If you’re drawn to writing that is entertaining, thoughtful, and beautifully told, this series is worth your time. It leaves you with a deeper appreciation for residencies and health care workers, and a refreshing reminder to move through life with a little more humor and grace.
“Doctor had me in stitches! One of the most entertaining books I’ve ever read. I literally laughed out loud.
