The Secret Life of a Sleepless Anaesthetist


NHS anaesthetist, comedian and author (oooooh check him) Ed Patrick injects Henley-on-Thames with a gut-punch hilarious show about becoming a junior doctor, the NHS, the pitfalls of modern medicine and the power of questioning it.


There’s plenty of laughing gas to go round.

‘Brilliantly funny’ Matt Lucas

‘Extremely funny’ The Telegraph

‘Packed with hilarious anecdotes’ The Guardian

‘Masterful, playfully provocative writing’ Chortle

As seen on Channel 4, Have I Got News For You and heard on BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 4 and BBC Radio Scotland.

Ed also hosts the ‘Comedians Surgery’ podcast where he speaks to guests including Joe Lycett, Rose Matafeo and Phil Wang about their health stories and experiences.
